i think you can do 20x10 and 265 given the right offset.

Yes you can run a 20 x 10, 20 x 11 in the front. With going this large it will require a higher offset or adjustable camber arms.

if you want to run bigger wheels here are my recommended offsets. (make sure your face type can clear your brakes)

20 x 9.5 +15 ~ +25
20 x 10 +22 ~ +32
20 x 11 +30 ~ +40

These are the lowest offsets I would personally go on a tire size that is meant for those widths. Again depending on customer and application your offset may vary...

If you wanna run a 10.5 make sure your in the +30 range or higher or else you will need a lot more work. (rolled fenders and what not)

Coilovers, Camber kits F&R, & Rolled Front fender... depending on tire sizes will determine your offsets.
