What backspacing would look good?

I have a 2005 f150 stx that I am buying 305/65/18 for tomorrow along with fx4 rims. I'm also getting a 2.5 inch leveling kit to fit these. My question is, what backspacing would look good with this setup if any? I don't know anything about backspacing so pictures are appreciated. I just want them to stick out around an inch or so. Nothing too crazy. Thanks for any and all help!!

Stock wheels are 18x7.5 with a 5.5 inch backspace. To come out about an inch you'll need a 18x8.5 wheel with stock 5.5 inch backspacing or +19 offset. Sometimes sticking out too much in the front may cause rubbing when making tight turns.
