10.5 is a really wide wheel for up front. even if you did get a "sqaure" setup, you'd need different offsets for the front and rear, regardless of whether or not they were the same widths. so you couldn't just rotate your tires like you would on a subaru or something.

for example. if you get a wheel that looks like it fits up front, it will be tucked in by a lot in back, if you get a wheel that fits good in back, it will stick out like crazy up front.

don't choose your wheels based on tire rotating, you wont be happy in the long run. this is a RWD car.... you don't rotate the tires, you made that decision when you bought the car. Now go pick some wheels you really like instead of what will save you a marginal amount of tire life.
