Second, find out the exact offsets in the front and the back (maybe you can see then on the inside of the wheel when they take them off).

Once you know the offsets, we can advise on spacer size. With out the offsets it's a guessing game.

+1 for an 8.5" front that doesn't look that bad

I would just keep your rear tires and switch to 245-30-20's in the front

From the pics you provided it's not that sunken in the front so worst case don't get spacers until you see how it looks with different front tires.
