Mini tubbing question

Hi guys, I know this subject has come up numerous times but I have read many of the threads on the subject and havent seen the answer I am looking for so here goes.

I currently have a set of bogart rt welded wheels in 15 x 10 w/6.5 bs on 28 x 10.5 mt slicks out back and I think they look great as is. My problem is that I changed my set up and will now need a bigger tire. What is the biggest size tire and rim that I can get back there that will also look good ( dont like them if the stick out of the fenders)

I wanted to stick a 29.5 x 10.5w on a 12'' rim. Will that fit with a mini tub? Thanks in advance

This is a pic of what it looks like now and I wanted the new set up to look similar (nicely tucked in)

You will have to trim the plastics to fit. Not to big of deal.
