Default 10" wide wheel

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

Someone on here has 20x10 w/ 285/30/20 all around.

And he is lowered with Sportlines which is one of the
most extreme drops, so you can do it.

I am running 20x10 in the front with sportline springs and I have had no rubbing issues at all!

going to a 10" up front is going to make it grab the ruts in the road a LOT more than an 8.5". IMO there is a night and day difference from an 8" to a 10" up front. I went to a 12" on my truck and I have to hold tight to the steering wheel or it will grab a rut hard and pull me right out of the lane, especially when stopping. Of course if your roads are all perfect you don't have to worry about it..
