Default 20" wheels on superduty

Im considering a set of 20" rims for my superduty and wanted to know what size width and backspacing I should get..

I am going to eventually put a leveling kit on it but want to be able to run 35" tires with no rub. But i dont want a wheel that juts out 8 inches from the wheel well and what width do you guys reccomend?

A large percentage of aftermarket wheels don't meet the load rating of the stock Superduty wheel. Some are as much as 1,000#+ short. No problem if you don't ever tow or haul but if you do, you can break one of those cast wheels in an instant. Tire selection in load-range "E" in 20" is pretty thin too.

My 05 and 07 Harley Edition Super Duty came stock with 20" wheels. The only issue I had was replacement tires with load E rating. As far as I know only Goodyear makes a replacement tire. But if anyone else knows of another option please enlighten me.
