3) Would aero mods (especially, the rear wing) provide any substantial benefits to the NA car?

1) not yet, but only because we haven't tried any. The gains from spherical bushings are generally not worth the price, unless you're in a highly competitive class and/or a full race car
2) generally 225/40/17, but this depends on the specific track. A really tight track with little or no straights will benefit from a larger tire that can carry more speed in turns. The smaller tire is to preserve what little acceleration we have
3) absolutely, even if you never see speeds over 80 at the track. Just as with the car itself, suspension, and tires, make sure you balance out the aero, or you'll end up with an ill-handling car.
