This info needs to be compared to your stock wheels. Then you will have your answer. I trust you understand this info.

Well, I believe stock wheels are 16 x 7.5" with 4 1/4" backspace, not sure of the offset, but guessing zero.
The Rockstars's are 20 x 8.5 with about 5 1/8" backspace. They also have a +10mm offset. They will be about 7/8" further in than stock.
Something in the -15mm offset would be real close to stock, backspace wise, though they would stick out a little more than stock because they are a wider wheel.
I also noted that they have a weight rating of 2200lbs/each. Seems a little light even for a 2wd truck IMO.
As for tires, a 275/55/20 is real close to stock, not sure if anyone makes a tire that size or not.

Cause putting a lift on a 2wd truck makes you look like a complete retard.

Im pretty sure the factory wheels are 16x7's, and I think the backspacing is 4.25. The center line is at 3.5", and the wheel mounting surface is at 4.25. Subtract the two, and you get a positive offset of .75" or 19.05 mm.
The wheels you are looking at are 20 x 8.5, have the backspacing of 5.14". The center line of 4.25", and the wheel mounting surface is at 5.14" Subtract the two, and you get a positive offset of .89" or 22.606 mm. The same width tire, on that rim, should stick in the wheel well .14" more, or 3.556mm.
