Wheels for Lightning with 2/3 drop???

I am wanting to lower my Lightning 2/3 but do not know what 20" wheels are availabe to put on there. I know the 5-135 wheels are hard to find, and also I have no idea how much offset or backspace is needed for clearance. Also, what is a the recommended tire size for a 20 and rim manufactures with correct specs. Any feedback and pics will be greatly appreciated.

i like the look of these

I went with stock ford harley 20"s because I couldn't find anything I liked in the aftermarket, but now I see these guys have black ones:

Thanx for the input, I guess I am just too picky. I like the factory rim look, but I want a flat black wheel that is not a factory make. I found some Eagle Alloy 063's but they are on back order with no "for sure" production date.
