Fabtech Lift & Backspacing ?

Is there any certain backspace you have to run with the fabtech 6" suspension lifts? I know it says if you run the steering stabilizer stock wheels won't work and to run a wheel with 5" of backspacing. But what about just the lift? I was looking at a wheel(20x8.5 w/ 5.45" of backspacing and 18mm offset) with those specs and need to know all will be well?

thanks in advance....

I have the 6in fabtech on my truck, the fabtech instructions which you can download on fabtechmotorsports.com say "FABTECH RECOMMENDS A 315/70/17 TIRE ON A 17X8 RIM WITH A 5” BACK SPACING BE USED WITH THIS KIT....this is the 2wd kit that i have. You will have to check the website if you have a 4wd for those instructions. I am running the american racing victor teflon coated 17x8 with a 4.75 back space. the wheels stick out a little on the sides, but it looks good.

hope this helps
