couple questions about wheels?

im new to this forum and this question has probably been asked hundreds of times. i am the proud owner of a 06 supercrew 4x4 with a 6'' pro comp lift. at this time i still have the stock wheels (17'') with 33's i was wondering what backspacing i would need on the new wheels? (20's) to fit. right now my stock wheels rub on my tie rod on any type of hard turn. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks p.s. i would like to get the new rockstar wheel if possible.

I can't remember what backspacing Pro COmp recommends but a 9 inch wheel with 5 inches of bs is the most common. Your rubbing is probably caused by a combo of a wide tire on the narrow oem wheel which has 5.5 inches of bs.
