On stock suspension, any x10 should be fine. 10.5 might be okay in the back with a smaller tire. If you’re lowered more than like 3/4, you’ll most likely get into rubbing issues up front
This is a 26x10 +31 with a 305/30/26

This is with a 295/30/26. Front fenders are pulled. Rears have the fender lip cut off. Not sure how much you’re lowered but this is pretty much the extreme as far as static with big wheels goes. Wheels hit the firewall pretty hard and made it a nightmare to make even somewhat tight turns

In my opinion, if you’re ordering something custom, I’d go like 35mm up front and like 30mm in the rear. That also depends on how small of a tire you can run
This is a x10 13mm offset with a 275/25/28 just for reference. The fronts would stick out way past the stock fender

You're looking at two gens ago... And no, they don't fit the same.
Doug should be commended for trying to help, but the backspacing between the last two gens and this gen is different.
I've gone in a completely opposite direction with wheels and tires (315/70R17 on 8.5 ET18), but I would be concerned about a 10.5 ET26 rubbing the upper ball joint. I have very little clearance there with my setup, and even the OE tires are close. For reference, OE are 20 (optionally 22) x9 ET28. The above are 38mm wider and only 2mm less offset, so 17mm closer to the ball joint, everything else being equal. With a 26" diameter wheel, I don't know how much a comparatively narrow tire will help.
