I got 8.5 front and 9.5 rear. Not sure if you can fit 10 to rear. My rear tire is larger in diameter and the tire is 275 R 35 19". It will not fit in with 35mm offset as the tire touches the inner fender wall. It seems it requires about 10mm spacer so you offset in the rear needs to be at least 45. Also make sure whatever front rim you choose that it clears you calibers. Mine didn't so I need 10mm spacer in the front also, which is actually not bad at all because the tire becomes flush with the fender. Therefore anything from 35mm to 45mm offset should work quite well in the front. I think my front tire size is 245 R 35 19". but not 100% sure.

Dangerous game, worried about the setup hitting the fender lips...

I will post another reply here when I get the spacers... and let you know.
