Wheel offset

ok, i just put some fender flares on the truck. pictured below. I've got 35" BFG's on it and oem wheels. I want to put some wheels with an offset enough to bring the tires out to flush with the outside of the flares (about 1.5-2"). Anyone have something similar and can tell me the width/offset of the wheels? After some looking, I like the Eagle Allow 186s.. they are a 17x9 with a +2 offset with 5" backspace. anyone know how far that should stick out from factory?

thanks

No, it's more like a 6" backspace. Supposed to be basically a stock replacement wheel, slightly wider, 20" dia. The tires are 295, so puts them just about flush to the flare, maybe a hair outward.
