Lifting my Yukon XL Denali with a 6" Rough Country Lift and their 2" preloaded struts. Do I need new wheels or can I use spacers on the 20" OEM wheels?

Here's what I came up with through the RC website, using the 6" lift for a 2015-2020 GM SUV 4wd. Please note that I've selected a 20" wheel at 9" width.
This is not my strong suite, but I don't think wheel spacers will help get you to the 0/+1 offset. I think new wheels might be required.
My BDS 4" lift (and their 6") is designed to run OE wheels. Maybe worth a look. IMO, the BDS kit is hands down better built product than RC.

I'm guessing that the RC knuckle design is quite different than the BDS. Either way, I believe that the wheel/tire will rub the UCA and/or the outer tie rod link with the OE wheels on the 6" RC lift.
