Question 305/55/20's on a 2wd with leveling kit?

Hi, just joined with an urgent question. I have an 06 F150 screw 2wd with factory 20's. I'm looking to put on 305/55/20 nittos with a 20x9 moto metal wheel. I have a 2.5" leveling kit. Will these fit w/out rubbing? My offset options on the new wheels are 30mm or 18mm. Which will work best?

They may fit on the ones with 6 inches of backspacing, but it will be tight.

Which offset provides 6" of backspacing? Sorry I'm dumb when it comes to this wheel stuff. I noticed your running close to a 33" tire on your Expedition, do you have a leveling kit on it, or is it 4wd? Any problems?

No, I wouldn't dare lift the Expy. In fact I'd like to lower it and inch or so. It's a 4x2 and I don't have any rubbing. My wheels are 9.5 inches wide with 6.7 inches of backspacing.

6.7" of backspacing!!!?? Wow!! That gives me a little comfort with the 6" backspaced wheels I just bought!
