What are you guys running for wheels? 05+

Okay, got myself some 05 axles for a project...

I know I need to run at least a 17" wheel to fit the brakes.

BUT, What backspacing/offset/inset is needed? Say for a 20x10, or 20x8 wheel? I know that the backspacing is different from the 99-04 to the 05-09, but what is different, and what do I need to say to the guy behind the counter when I am ordering wheels? Its not as easy as my OBS truck haha

I have searched for a while now to try and find offset/inset numbers for wheels, and what works, and what doesnt, but I cant seem to locate information, OR pictures.

I have a set of wheels here, 17x8, 8x170mm, with a -6 offset. The track width on those is a whopping 72" on the 05 axles... So needless to say, They will probably be sold to my brother who has an 01 SD. I think they will stick out too far, and they BARELY cover the rotor on the inside!

So, if you guys can post up some pictures of your wheels, along with the specs, I would appreciate it!

I run Weld 18x8.5 with 4.75" backspacing and 0mm offset. Great looking wheel and fits 99-'07 trucks with the proper hubcentric style wheel.
