Minimum +25...might be able to go down to +30, but I cannot guarantee with an offset that much.

Yep, sorry, that was for rear fitment.
There is no way a 10" rim will fit up front short of overfenders.
To clear stock suspension, 10" +5 minimum offset I'd recommend up front.

there's a guy on teamfc3s.org running 17x10 +12 all around... but he's running coilovers, and they definetly won't clear the front struts without coilovers... oh, and thats with seriously stretched tires also...
