I did a very similar thing, 8.5 front and 9.5 rear but on 19's. I could not find a tire that would fit nice and square on the rim and i wanted some more rubber between the pavement and the rim I decide on the 19's. Do your tires offer protection to the rim, in the pics the side wall looks pulled away from the rim some.
I ended up with a 2.5" lip in the rear and 1" in the front with the offsets I used. I need to learn how to post pics.
Car lokks great, nice job!

10" Rears Can Work
We actually were able to get 19x10's in the rear, I have to see if I wrote down what offset that was. I ended up with the 9.5" though because of tire sizes available. I did not want to have a bulge or pulled back look on the rims. Iam running 265/30ZR19 Toyo T1S's.
I will post my offsets this weekend in the wheel section.

(((I wont be talking to you when I can buy myself a car? And when I do buy myself one, it wont have ugly rims on it.)))

second my rims will cost more then your car too
third, i know you wont buy one from me cause you cant afford the cars i sell
now go back to your bike and ride around the block or somthing

Why? B/C its to allow more rubber to hit the road, so more power can be planted to the road.
So there is a PURPOSE for it you moron.
Have you ever been to the dragstrip? RWD cars have slicks in the REAR, where the power is transferred to. On FWD cars, the slicks are on the front
You are an embarresment to tuners. Your other crime is black wheels. Black wheels are for those with true high performance cars. A TL is not that. That Porsche 911 with black wheels has them for a reason. You don't.
Its great the tuner market has grown, its pathetic how people slap anything on anything.
Your last crime, you put 20s on a non-big body car. It looks out of place and ridiculous. Your WHOLE combination, may fool people who have no clue but to those that do, you are a clown.
When that BMW driver pulls up next to you, sees you have wider wheels on the rear of a FWD car, they are going to take a pic of your car, and post it on the net of the idiot with staggered on FWD.
