    I think 20x9 will clear no problem. Let's see some pix of the truck to know what might look good. And what look are you looking for?

    Check out mrwheeldeal.com, that's where I got my rims from. They do tires too!

    20x9 will work as long as you have 4.5"-5.5" of backspacing and stick to a tire thats less than 12.5" wide and 33" tall.

    From someplace else..

    Negative. You'll have to have your TPMS's swapped and "rebuilt" to your new rims. It's not a big deal.
