Will this setup look ridiculously wide/sticking out? My original choice has been back ordered for over a month so am considering these wheels. I like the wide look but worried this is too much? Any pictures of examples for this backspacing would be great!

Well here's my truck with -18 offset and it looks fantastic imo,not too wide but once I get some beadlocks for my new ecodiesel I will most likely go wider

Yours looks great! How wide are your wheels? That’s a 12.5 wide tire?

It's a 12.5 wide tire with 9.5" wide wheel
Gotcha, I could be wrong but my understanding is your backspacing is more like 4.75 based off the 9.5 wheel which means my proposed setup would stick out more. Yours is pretty ideal and that’s why I’m concerned about mine being too far out.
