17x8.5 F, 17x10 R... Memory Fab had the same set in 18's listed as "VOLCANO" but they are surely not volcanoes.

cool with a 10" rear you probably gonna be pretty moderate with a 265 Im fairly sure you could fit that on a stock AP2 wheel (9inch), of course I have no idea what kind of fender clearances your working with but it should look great either way I hate my wimpy winter 225 rears
post up some pics when you get these mounted

I thought about running a 285 but with the +40 offset I wanna be safe and see how my rear quarter (already modified) holds up. Its gonna be a while till i get them on since its gonna take 30+ days to get them (coming from Austrailia) and I leave for basic training a little after they come in. Should be a little while before they see the pavement.
