16x8 aftermarket wheels with more backspacing?

Stock 16x6.5 wheels have 4.75" backspacing. A 16x8 with 4.5" backspacing pushes the outside edge of the rim 1.75" further to the outside. I'm wondering if I will have rubbing issues on a 4x4 with 285/75-16 tires and no lift.

What 16x8 aftermarket wheels out there have closer to stock '00 - '02 backspacing (6.25")? Obviously not so much that the wheels hit the steering knuckle and/or tie rod ends on the front of my 1997, but at least something more than the standard 4.5".

Thanks.
