let me preface this with my intended setup:
Nismo suspension (20mm / 0.8" drop)
Axis Hiro 19"
now what I was wondering was could the rear 10.5" Hiros fit up front? I know the fenders would have to be rolled....but would that be the only thing needed? would the tires stick way out?
this is just a random thought to get some more rubber up front to reduce understeer and still have lots of grip

I'm sure with that kinda drop and that wide a wheel there would have to be some serious fender cutting or rolling, not positive though.
What would you put in the rear then? I dont see why anyone would want bigger than a 9.5 up front. The rear is where you want to make sure there is traction. If you were doing a show car or a widebody kit or something I could understand it.
"would the tires stick out?"
That would depend on the offset of the wheel i assume. There are people that are running a 275 tire on front 9in wheels and I dont think they stick out really. I believe that is on the 20x9 axis seven mods that some people have.
If thats what you want to do though, go for it.
