Default Wheel help!!!

Hey guy's looking to see if anyone can help me out. I have a 2002 c5 vert. I have stock wheel's and was wanting to know if i can take the stock 18 from the rear and put it on the front and buy a stock 19 that is 10" wide on the rear so i can put a wider tire on the rear. I dont know if the 18 from the rear will fit. I hope someone can help me out on this. If you guy think it will work what is the biggest tire i can put on a 19x10 wheel .
Thanks

I run 18x9.5 on the front with no problems. I am running a smaller
tire than the 275 right now. Check with Tire Rack concerning
biggest tire on 19x10 wheel. Its right on the internet.
