Also regarding a 9in width, can you even run something that wide on the stock suspension without modification? I'm sure at some point down the line I'll invest in a nice suspension setup but that day is far away.

I have a 9.5 on the back in my car, 9's fit fine. (I didn't read the rules first, now I'm stuck in STU where I'm terribly uncompetitive)

I wouldn't say it takes the fun out, these car still make enough power to swing the rear end out. I've spun a couple of times getting too aggressive on the throttle at events last year.

It really depends what you're looking for. Grip is what you need for auto-x, there was a few guys last year running on stock rims and tires and they were bordering on out of control for the whole run. Fun? Yes. Posted good times? Hell no.
