I am look to get a set of 20 x10 wheels next Spring. My question is. What offset would I need to keep the same or close to the same backspace as factory 20 inch wheel. I am assuming my wheel is 9 inches. I kind of get lost in the metric system vs standard.

It could be 20 x 8 too. Its on either the driver door sticker or on the pillar where tire pressures are.

just got my new wheels on. its a 10 offset instead of 18 which with the same tire on, puts the rims 1/3 of an inch more out. i couldn't tell the difference if you told me on how far out it is, but where before i couldn't get my forefinger 2nd knuckle between the tire and uca, i can get my whole finger in there now and wiggle it. i "might" go a bit wider tire in the future, hence my change on the offset.

I am wanting to go a little wider foot print than stock. I am working on turning my truck over to a pro touring truck.
