Default Backspacing?

Ok Im going with a 16x9 wheel. What backspacing do I need to keep it looking about stock

Im thinking about splitting the extra inch over stock. How would that look? I want to keep it kinda stock looking as far as how far they stick out

Its going to be going on a 01 GMC 1500HD CCSB

You should be fine with anything in the 6" to 6.5" range of backspace

he would be fine, but it won't exactly look right.

6.5" of BS in the rear will put a tire very close to the leaf pack.

Whoops! I missed that part. I have no idea what you would need. Unless the dimensions on the HD are the same as the SCSB 1500.
