Most 17" wheels are a maximum width of 9 - 9.5. You can have custom width and offset manufactured. But to buy something off the shelf with a width of 10 - 10.5 you'll probably have to move to an 18" wheel

Yep, you'd have to look into a custom fitment like Fikse, Kinesis, Work, et. al., and those never run cheap. Also, keep in mind that deep dish = low offset, and the wider the wheel, the higher offset you'd have to have to keep from hitting anything.

not cheap, but cheaper than Fikse and Kinesis. If you wanna play, you gotta pay
