I am running a 18X10 with 275 40 18s rear and 17X8 with 255 45 17s in the front. The rear is a tight fit and required a little work. 17X8s all around will work with no problem as will the 18X8s. When you start getting wider than 9 inch you start to run into clearance problems on the wheels.

17x9 wheels, 4" bs on the rear and 4.5 on the front. 285/40's rear and 275/40 fronts- no clearance problems on the inside, could have gone way bigger to the outside and diameter on the rear. Oh well.
