Tire / Wheel Question

I have a 1970 F100 and I want to go with a 20" wheel....can anyone tell me what size and backspacing I will need to achieve a look like the one in the pic below?

Best thing to do is actually measure it. You can do it yourself with a straight edge and tape measure or ruler. Check this page out:

Well I thought maybe someone here might be running 20's and could give me a quick answer as I'm still unsure if I am doing it correct and don't want any rub.
