You should be able to go with 10"-11" in the back with some work. 9.5" will fit fine in the front with the correct backspacing.
Edit - Also keep in mind those wheels cost around $3K +

I went with 18x8 in the front and 18x9.5 in the back (Boyds tho, not Fikse). I could have gone wider but I plan to drop the car about 2 and 1/2 inches and I was worried about rubbing. If you plan to drop the car you might not want to go that wide. But if you are going to keep it stock or even do a mild drop then I say go for the 17/18x9.5 front 17/18x11 rear. Be sure to roll the fenders. When choosing tires just get the overall size (rim and tire) as close to stock as possible. So if you go bigger wheel, go smaller sidewall. There are wheel size calculators on the internet that will help you find the right combo.
