Default Aftermarket Rim Choice and Size?

So im looking to get some rims in the spring for my truck. I dont wanna lower the truck because i like the way it rides now. If i had to i could drop the back 2 inchs to match the ride of the front.

Im looking at some 20 by 9.5 these ones

And im not too sure on the tires yet but im looking to get these

Now my question is will 20's fill in the gap ok? I dont wanna spend the money and it look like there too small?

Thanks for the input

I think the 20 inch rims will fill the space good. 18" doesn't do too bad of a job but it's too small in IMO.

Ya 18 are too small lol. 20 i think are a good size and a good prize too. 22 and then 24 are too much for me right now althou i would love to have them. wat about those tires? 275/45R20 you think those are big enough? like 45 thats pretty skinny isnt it? maybe get 55 or 65 to fill it better?
