10's are a bit large for a mere s50 and you will end up with a spastic chariot that rides and handles like shit.

10s with teeeenie tyres and no offset will
I had 9s with a decent tyre and had to pull the arches like crazy
Being steels I assume you will be running 15?s

Theres nothing wrong with 10j wheels...
So long you don't say it's stanced its fine....
10j is prob a bit of a squeese with 9j ET20 there is about 5mm clearance to the shock. So go on willtheyfit.com

The will prob poke out like 23mm if you have an offset of 10?
I dunno have a play its a useful website....

That looks very useful Minimayhem! I (somehow) forgot, I also modified the shock towers to get shock clearance.

I got 8.5s under my arches with a roll, no flare. They are BMW Mini 15" steels with a 3in band on them, with 205/50 tyres on.
