Have you talked to AWD Tuning yet? They seem to be one of the few reputable tuners when it comes to boxer engines in the metroplex.

I usually get mine from Tirerack. It looks like for what you are wanting it's 150.00 a wheel. Not a bad price.

That was a while ago and I already have the RS3 V2 mounted up.

Discount Tire will price match Tire Rack seeing as that they are one in the same company. This will save you from having to wait and worry about shipping.

What if the tires are not listed at Discount Tire? Will they still order them? If so next set ill be looking into that.

I ordered a set of tires not listed on their website once and he just priced it with a similar tire they carried. I have had different experiences at different stores so it may be dependent on the management. Definitely doesn't hurt to ask when you're already there since waiting for tires to ship can be a hassle.

Rota G-Force - I went down a Wheel size, the wheels on it now are 19x8 and I have no traction, so I went to a 18x9.

I'm using these tires for AutoX so getting a tire that is "similar" will not cut it. If it's not one of the three I listed then I wont bother. I ordered them from tirerack and got here rather fast.

Might need to look into a widebody kit depending on the size of tire you plan to go. Mine poke decently with a offset of +35. However I have no rubbing issues on stock suspension.
