Question Will they stick out past wheel wells?

I was wondering if you fine Ford owners out there could help me out. I’m thanking of getting new wheel for my truck.
Pro Comp Xtreme Alloys Series #1023 With a 33in. tire.
17x9
6x135mm
-12mm offset
4.5 backspacing

I would like to know if the wheels would stick out past the wheel wells. I am trying to get the wheel and tires close to even with the wheel wells as possible with out sticking out past them. Any help would be grateful. Thanks

It's gonna be close. Here's a pic of my setup with 17X9 5.5" bs and 33" tires, and they are pretty much even with the wheel wells. If you go with the 4.5" bs wheels, they may stick out an inch or so. Hope this helps.

They are gonna stick out 2 1/2 inches farther than your OEM tires.

Thank you for being concerned about this.

Almost nothing looks worse than tires sticking out past the wheel wells, not to mention how dirty the truck gets.

A big thanks for the replies. Could someone point me in the right direction of wheels that have the 5.5 backspacing? Nothing to expensive. :o
