Id like to go as wide as possible all the way around.
Exactly! 1M wheel wells seem to be good for a 10" wheel fr and 11" rear, and good size tires which will also keep (or stay close to) the stock stagger and rolling diameter are 275 or 285/30 fr and 305/30 rear.

PSS is available in those sizes other than the 285/30. Pirelli P Zero and Continental 5P are available including 285/30, new Dunlop Maxx Race too but it is a different category tire. Maybe these new RE-11A will be made in these sizes which could be a good alternative for PSS without getting too much out of street tire category.

There would be little to no compromises with a set up like that, and huge benefits, disregarding the extra cost.
