19x8.5 35-40 et will fit front and 19x9.5 45 et in the rear. 245 and 265-275 for rears. Rolling and trimming a must in the rear. This is the largest average used without major mods.

I would also recommend full poly bushing replacement as well in the rear. A wheel that fits when static can very well rub under operating conditions as the rear cradle and arms can move quite a bit with the stock bushings.

yep, very true. Cradle bushings help here the most and should be first consideration.
