Probably not. At least not very well or safely. If it did fit, it would be really pushing it.

The 245's barely fit on my 9's so i'd say no.

Why even spend the money on 10.5in rims to only put 245s on em, seems like quite a waste in my opinion.

Why are you spending the money on 10.5" rims if you can't buy tires for them? Don't do something unless you can do it right. Just buy some 9" wheels and put some 285's on them.

I'd put 265's on the front and atleast 305's on the back. Running skinny tires on those wheels will not only look like crap, but it isn't very safe.

This is the exact setup that you are talking about. I had 245s on the front 9" rims, and 275s on the back 10.5" rims. I now have 315 on the back, but that was only because the 275's wore out.

245s are a 9" tread width tire. They barely fit on my 9.5" rims, which also happens to be the smallest size I can put on my 9.5". So NO, they will not fit.
