Default 10" wide wheel

Can you run a 10" wide wheel up front on an SN197?

Sure. Why not? My SVT Cobras are 18 x 9.5 with a 48 or 50mm offset. Stick with an offset in that same range and you should be fine. The issue is, what width tire do you want to put on it? I don't think I'd want to go wider than my 275's up front. As it is, they want to track the dickens in and out of rutted roadways.

Have you picked a tire you want? Check the specs to see the recommended rim widths are for them. I think a 255 (if you can PUT a 255 on a 10" rim) or 275 up front with 305's in the rear would look pretty mean.

I run my with 18x10 Roush rims, with 275/40 R18 on them, and no issues at all.
