Anything wider than 10" on a Fox will generally require removal of the quad shocks and the use of a BFH to massage the fenderwells. Also, with that much backspace you might have to use a small spacer.

I put 17x9-1/2" wheels with 6.6"BS on 275-40-17's on all four corners. Wasnt easy, And with 10-1/2" rims & 6.8S, thats not really going to fit...
