KMC Hoss with 6.18 backspace and +30 offset

I see these wheels from KMC now with 6.18 BS and +30 offset. Will these wheels fit our trucks OK? They seem very close to the stock wheels. Thanks.

Theyll probably stick in a tad too far, really the 5.71 backspaced wheel is a perfect fit.(17x9 here)
I have them, and plenty of room both at the front/rear of the front fender opening as well as no more rubbing on the control arms at full lock in either direction like with the stock wheels.(with 35" Toyos or 37" pro comps)

I believe they are 20X9 and tires would be 35x12x20 toyo mt's.

Explain please.......how will they stick out too far, since the stock wheels have around 6.25" of backspacing.

No, stick in a tad too much for wider tires NOT to rub on the control arms at full lock, like stock wheels.

I guess I should have reworded that. As in, they sit a little too close to the inside.
