Default Do I need backspacers?

I ordered these 20 x9 0MTB with 325/60r 20" on them.

I was hoping they were 4.5" back space but I'm measuring 5" and the rim seems to be 10" wide. Which puts it at 0 which is measured from the center. I don't want tires sticking out too far. I don't see any wheel spacers under 1.5".
Is there a chance these wheels will fit without rubbing? I have a metalcloak 3.5" lift being installed with the tires and a MC stubby ft bumper.
Thanks, I was hoping no spacers but these tires are wide looking.

Can find 1" spacers on Ebay.
