Wheel offset/ backspacing

I recently came across a 5 inch BDS lift for less than half price and it is brand new! So of course I am going to pick it up. Also a 3 inch body lift for cheap as well.

I have a question for one of you wheel gurus out there.

I want to run a 37 or 38 inch tires. It will either be a 13.50 or 14.50 inch wide tire. So What size rim should I be looking for. I was thinking a 18x9 will work just fine. But I would like the tires to poke out a little. What kind of offset/ back spacing should I be looking for to clear everything with no rubbing.
