Reason I didn't really want a 9" is because then I have to add in coilovers to fit with camber and not really wanting to fall too deep in the rabbit hole you know? Have a lot of driving to do before that though...


if you truly want to future proof then get a lightweight 17 x 9 wheel.


this will allow you to run tires from 225 to 245/255 to match your power levels if you start modding the engine


17x9 is also the max size for the STX class, so if you ever decide to play in autocross you've got at least one thing optimized.
