You might find one that has a setup rig that bolts to your rim & shows the fit at different offsets and tire sizes, but thats a bit rare unless they do alot of custom work.
You'll always be able to fit more under the rear than the front as you have to look at what sort of clearance you need as full turn for the frame and fender. One reason why you'll see some rigs with smaller front tires.

Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things.
But thats just MY opinion! :P
