Kyle and Stacy Tucker are the owners and primary engineers of DSE. they built the arms, and they can tell you what will fit.

When I orderedmy rims throught them they recommended I go a 235 or 245/45/17 with 4 7/8" BS on an 8" up front and 17/9.5" 5.5BS in the rear with a 275/40/17

To answer your question, that combo would 'work' but the ideal set up would be a 245/ front on an 8" wheel with a 4.875" backspace front, and a 9.5" wheel on the rear with a 275/ tire and 5.5" backspace.
