Wheels & Tire Question

I have a 99 F350. Can anyone tell me what the stock backspacing is on the factory wheels? I think its somewhere around 4.6" or so based on doing some searching on this forum and other site around the web.

I currently have 33x12.5 BFG all terrains on Eagle Alloy Wheels with no rubbing.

I am thinking of going with Mickey Thompson 20" Wheels that have a backspacing of 4.5". If I did this, I would run an equivalent tire size to what I have now, which I believe will be around LT305/55R20. Can anyone tell me if they think this would be a bad combination, or if the tires will rub? I currently have some of the fender and the front bumper trimmed and I don't have a problem trimming a little more if need be.

Is anyone running this combination, or something close they could attach pictures of?

Thanks in advance!

It should be fine. That's the same backspacing I'm running on my wheels, and they are 20x10's. Specs on mine are 4.5" backspacing, and -25mm offset.
