get 9" rears if you can. 10.5s are a pain to stuff under a fox. I just installed a set with 315s, there was a lot of pounding and fender rolling involved and I still had to run a spacer and I will have to either buy the flowmaster tails or have an exhaust shop customize my old tails to run under the axle instead of over.

Also of note, American Muscle will not mount a 275 tire on a 10.5 rim. If you want the free mount and balance they will insist on a 315 tire, but due to liability reasons they will not mount a 275 on anything large than a 9.5" rim.
