10" width up front?

any disadvantages to running 10" width wheels up front?

btw, i was thinking of 19X10 +19 (F) and 19X11 +24 (R).

What tire size are you planning on running and how much negative camber? With a 10" front, the wheel is going to stick out past the fender, so you'll have to run some amount of negative camber to get them to tuck under compression. If you are planning on running something about a 265, then its worth it, anything below and you should stick with a 9.5 unless its strictly for bling

265/30/19 would probably be the better choice, just because the 265/35/19 is going to be taller and give you more clearance issues. If you are only going to run a 255/35/19, then there is no point really in running a 10" wheel. The 255 is the perfect width for the 9.5" wheel already. You'll add weight and not gain any significant handling benefits from using that sized wheel with that sized tire. Camber will probably have to be in the -2 to -2.7 range, not sure exactly because very few people run that sized wheel

Yes, those are the sizes I would run if I was going with that setup, although, I would personally go with the 19x11+11 in the rear for maximum lippage. That will require some negative camber though, especially with the 295's. Post up some pics if you decide to go with them, most of the SP1 setups I've seen have the 84mm rear lip
