I have a set of 20's for my truck as well and still deciding whether to run 32's or 33's on them.

just a heads up bolt pattern is 5x 4.75 and if you are 4x4 then its a got to have a backspacing as close to 6" as possible. the less you have the more it will make the wheel stick out causing more tire rub.

Well with a lifted truck you want at least a 4.5 or 5" backspace. If you use the stock back space you will run into the issue of the wheel rubbing. How wide of a wheel are you going with? Mine are 20 x 9.
