Default Debating on rims for the truck

I am trying to debate whether or not to get 20x9 or some 22x9.5 both with a +20 offset. I am gonna get the backend lowered at some point. The diff in price in rims are like 200.00 so thats why I am on the fence to either get the 20's or go for 22's. The rims I am looking at Dale Earnhardt jr ribelle. I will be keeping my stockers so that I can play on them. Just looking for some opinions.

those bigger heavier wheels are going to cancel out some of your mods.
I noticed a big difference from 20's to 22's. Mileage sucked too.
Needless to say i downgraded to some 17's and felt power go up as well as some nice *** mileage gains. I know centerline wheels are light and won't hurt performance like a heavier wheel will. Just FYI Any pictures of the wheels?

Not to thread jack. But going from 17's to denali style 20's will there be a detectable difference in power with a 6.2 and 3:73's
