Wheel question

It's about time I order some rims and tires for my truck. I'm a little disappointed in the selection of 6 lug rims that are out there. I should have looked more into what is out there before I purchased my 6 lug discs. I think I've decided on the summit racing Legend 6. Sadly they only come in 17 x 8s. I was hoping to go a little wider in the back to get a wider tire, but it is what it is.

I have a 2wd fleetside Longbed. Gonna do 2.5 drop in front and 3 in the back. Looking for the rake look. What is the widest tire I can get without any rub? What back spacing would work best for me? How do I figure out what 6 lug spacing I have? 6 x 5.5 or 6 x 135mm?

Thanks,
Ryan

If anyone knows any rim selections that greatly resembles the torque thrusts in a 18" rim let me know!
