I think 15x10 with 4.5-5" backspace will do the trick for the rears, but have no idea what I'll need to do for the fronts. Not trying to put it on the frame rails either- probably a 3/4 or 4/5 drop, depending on how much clearance I need during suspension load.
10" wide and 5" backspace center you between the tubs on the back. Its gonna be hard to fit that big of a tire on the rear with a 5" drop. I run 295/50 and its as big as I feel comfortable going with a ~5" drop in the rear.

8's on the front with a 4" BS are typical on a 15" wheel. You have to grind the control arm and its sit close to the tie-rod end. 10" wide wheel sit just outside the fender and doesn't look great imo.
