Default 20" wheels on HD

Im looking at a set of 20"x10" wheels(eagle 114) with 305 50 20 (gy gt 2s) and was wondering,with 4 5/8 bs and -21mm off set would they finish off somewhere near flush with my stock fender flares?I know there arent many HD rolling 20s so any advice would be great.

I think a 10'' wheel with a 4 5/8 backset is going to stick out a lil I know my 20x9 are flush on my 2wd 1/2 ton I think stock backset is 5 or 5 1/2 on my truck and so is my 20s. Maybe someone will chime in who knows for sure.

Hopefully moregrip will chime in on this. he has a nice set of 20's on his HD and they look SICK! his however are intros that were made with custom backspacing for his truck.

the hd have a wider track in the front so for them to sit flush in the front, the front wheels will require a a different offset than the rears.

I posted in the general box on these wheels. I've got the real Weld Velociti 8's on my 2500 non HD. The rims are 9.5" wide, I'm not sure what the back spacing is, but with the flares they do stick out a hair in front, but they look dam* good.

Here's a couple of pix:

btw the 4 5/8" BS on a 10" wheel for a HD is mostly associated with Off Road type BS'ing...
