of these wheels on a '67 SWB Fleetside with 4/5 drop? I can get them for a super price. They are 20x9 6-5-1/2 with 5.25" backspacing. Is 5.25 too much backspacing? Here's the pic:
EDIT: THEY ARE 20X9 with 5.25" backspacing. I'm thinking they may sit too deep in the fenders?

Look OK to me. Do they have tires? Maybe you can throw two on your truck so you know exactly how they will fit before you buy.

no tires, just wheels. It's an online deal. Less than $600 for 4 of them. So I can't see how they'll look unfortunately.

they are 20x8.5 though. Is this a little too much backspacing? I was incorrect when I previously stated they were 20x9.

Are you talking about this deal? $150 for shipping ouch! Still, they look nice and would look awesome on your truck. Maybe go to a local tire shop and "try on" some of the same size.

Yes, they are the ones

It depends on tire height.. you could have a 15" rim/tire with the same overall tire diameter as a 20" rim/tire.
