Rim back spacing ??

I want to get 17x9 fuel maverick rims with a 285/70r17 nitto trail grappler tire. I did the tire size calculator and this combo should be the same size as I'm running now. 285/75/r16. They both show to be 32.7 tall and 11.2 wide. I just don't know which backspace to order? I do not want to lift because of fitting in garage, towing boat, 4 kids getting in and out, and it has brand new rancho 9000 adjustable shocks. I think the machined and black combo will look sweet on my silver excursion.

4.5" backspacing for the leaf spring suspension. The coil spring folks use 5.5" backspacing.
Oh yes, those will look Xcellent!

This website was a great help when ordering my 18x9s (Back Space Calculator).
