10" wide wheels?
I'd shoot for +20.

Well, backspacing on a 40mm offset, 7" wide (TII) wheel is...uh...about 5 inches. So a zero offset 10" wide wheel would keep the same spacing.

man,

I'd get the kit first.

then see what you need.... becuse its hard to return some wheels that wide and also a waste of time.

you could run 17x10 +35 all around to clear the suspension but who knows how far out your fenders will be...
