10 inch wide wheels...In the front :-)

I currently have a 9.5 with a 7mm spacer. I am looking to go to a 10 inch front wheel and run 265/35/18. Are any of you running this set up? Will i be running into issues?? I have ccw's i am not sure of the off set. Just by eyeballing it i'd like to say i have plenty of room currently even with the 7mm spacer, i am just fitment pro ;-)

I tan it. Awesome. May run at full lock but no real huge deal. You can mod the radiator brackets and move them forward about .5 inch to relieve the liners and with a good fender roll and heavy neg camber you will be fine. Handles awesome!

I run 10's up front as my track wheels. Perfect fit if you have the right offset.

You can see some pics from my last event here... how they fit.

going off what sambo said. I would suggest the lowest profile tire. Get front adjustable trail arms to adjust the caster a bit so it wont hit the front plastic.
Yes no full lock. I only turn 3/4 turn. Perfect track wheel as 99% of the time you never turn more then 1/4 of the steering wheel.
