Wheel spacers can damage your car. I don't recommend them.

depending on the rim size then 275/40/17 is good, if the rim is a 17inch rim
alot of cobra R rims are 18.
but that size is the size i run on my rims, i have 17x9 all around

but have smaller tires up front...and due to the tread design i cant rotate any tires unless i want a smaller looking tire in back

Yea, but 10.5 up front will rub. You can rotate them also. Just switch sides.
