Wheel/Tire Size Advice

I am planing on getting 16x10" wheels for the back of my truck with 295/50/16s but I cant decide weather to go with 16x7s or 16x8s for the front. I want that biggie/small look but I want to keep it practical cus my trucks my daily driver. What do you guys think. Also what size tires you think for the front? Post pics please. Thanks

Boardrider52 - Any particular reason for going with 16x8s or just your preference? Thanks
