Default Backspacing on stock 20" rim
I am trying to figure out what the backspacing on the stock 20in rim is????
Does anyone know? I think its probably around 5.5 or 6 but not sure. Need to know because i am trying to decide if i can keep the stock rims for a lift or if i am absolutely going to have to buy an aftermarket wheel.

kicker417, What year is your truck? 1500, 2500? Leveling kit? Any rubbing? Stock wheels?

The backspacing is right around 5.75". I just went through all this also trying to figure the best new wheels and tire size + leveling kit.
