Wheel fitments.... Need help!

My suspension is also stock but i run the wheels off of an evo 8 so i run the stock evo tire size. That may be my problem but i want as much tire on the ground as possible since this is my "road and track" car

Tire contact dosent play much of a roll with the type of wheels or tires you have. But how your suspension is set up. Fine line between road and track set up, track set ups you want a lot of camber road/street driving you don’t want that much. I run 17x 8.5 -35 offset with 10mm spacers in front and 15mm in the rear with pretty aggressive camber not something you will drive on a daily because if tire wear. We can go on and on about what you should run but everyone will have a different opinion.

Btw big fan of your build for months. I watched a few of your on track videos. I havent done suspension mods yet because i am still looking for a daily. I bought the car and used it as a daily for a while but i got a job an hour away from my house so i need a new one. Once i get my new daily this car will become my project and i am going to make a post about it when i start. I have alot of plans and at first im starting with suspension. What do you reconmend? Im planning bc coils, st suspension sway bar, and poly bushings. Do you have any other reconmendations? Sorry to hijack the post.

I have BC racing coilovers as they come stock spring rates are pretty decent for daily driving and some track use. If I had to choose between brands I would look into Ksports or BC, BC gives you the option to get the shocks revalved for different spring rates depending on how you wanna go and im pretty sure ksport is the same. Ive had both brands and ive had nothing but good things to say about them both.

For poly bushings I would suggestion getting prothane front bushing kit for the 3G and a 2G rear prothane kit as they come with the knuckle bushing The 3g kit doesn't supply those. Prothane vs ES bushings will be quite the price difference but the ease of installation on the prothanes is what you pay for as they are half bushings that can be easily be pressed in. If you splurge look into arms from VMC "volk metal craft" for the 2G they have amazing toe, control, and trailing arms but are quite expensive . also the 2G and 3G share the same rear suspension and can be all compatible with little to no modification.
