In my opinion do whatever it takes to use the thinnest spacer in front, if you have to use a spacer at all. I have to use a 10mm spacer in front, added ARP long wheel studs and only had to roll the rear and I'm good. I know you guys have a lot more room to play with, but either way with that much tire I wouldn't think twice about rolling the fenders and just do it anyway.

I have read to run the +15 offset, only the rear fenders need to be rolled. And then you need to do a pretty big alignment.

I guess I have two questions...it looks like I will have to roll the rears regardless so is there any disadvantage to going with 10.5's? I love the way the look, all nice and meaty, but are they too big? Is the extra rotating mass a big deal?

Secondly, where is a good place to have these mounted, installed and to do the fender rolling? Preferably someone that is a bigger shop so I can do it very soon. I don't want to burn up my expensive winter tires anymore than they already are. I might sell them soon too, to help pay for a winter beater.
