You shouldnt have an issue with these wheels. I'm running 15x10 on a 4.5 backspace and had to clearance my tie rod end a bit. With a 20 inch wheel you should have plenty of clearance for anything that might even be close to in the way.

Remember, the higher backspace number the further the inside edge of the wheel will be to the chassis/frame. With a 17inch and larger wheel i believe you can run up to a 5.5 backspace before running into issues. The only thing you may see is the wheel contacting your control up before full lock, other then that you will probably be fine.
