Im thinking wider wheels is the best way to go. My tires are practically flush with the fender. Ive got an 8.5 up front and a 10.5 in the rear (with 7mm spacers on the rear). Ive got a super aggresive wide stance and it looks great. Your best option is a 7mm spacer in the front with a 14 in the rear (or it could be the other way around, I dont know). Get them from Todd at Epiq, he can set you up with spacers and wheel bolts.

Heres my album, check the second page for pics of the wheels.

(thats a pretty good pic, Im running a 275 tire in the rear but I could put a 285 on from what everyone says)

Depending how large a "spacer" you use (instead of an adaptor), you may need to change lug bolts to ensure you have enough thread to hold the wheel on.
