325/65/18 Backspacing

Hey guys i'm just about to order the nitto terra grapplers 325/65/18 (35x13) mounted on an 18x9 Helo Maxx 6. I'm putting these on my 03 f150 that has a body lift and cranked torsion bars. What backspacing should I get and how much will those stick out?

I see it can be either 4.5" or 5 3/8"
Thanks

One Last thing guys, do you think i should go with an 18 inch rim? i like the wheels and tire. Do you think the wheel would look wierd being smaller, or better with more rubber? Plus smaller sizes save more money? What do you guys think about an 18 inch rim? should i go down some?

In your guys personal opinion what would you rather get, and which do you think looks better
1. 35's with 18" rim
2. 35's with 16" rim (cheaper)

Thanks

I have 16s and they look nice, but the "in" thing now is more rim. I like the look of more rubber. Either would looks nice, but id give the edge to the 18's. But 16's look great too.

I like the look of 18's and 35's. The perfect combo of wheel and sidewall. The Helo Maxx 6's are the best looking wheel on the market IMO, of course I may be a little bias.
