I was living in Vic in early 90's and was told by the bloke that did my roadworthy (an absolute Ford nut) that it was permissable to go 1 inch over standard width and as there was 8 inch wide tyres fitted to one of the Alan Moffat specials He allowed me to roadworthy my Landau using my 8.5 inch (front) wheels on the back, but I was told there was no way other than an Engineers report of using the 10's.
