Dan Gardner Parts coming soon

Ok today i was in contact with Dan Gardner via Facebook. He asked me what i preferred a 17" rim that has max performance or 18" with less performance. I dont know what you guys prefer but i like the idea of 17x8.5's. He is working on two types of wheels in 17" and 18". DG also sent me this, "We will have your lowering products too. =) Should be fine, so long as it's not SLAMMED. We loaded the car up in turns at over 100 mph with zero rubbing at stock ride height, and most owners won't ever see the loading we do. The spring rates we are choosing will also further resist rapid weight transfer. A lower CG and the DG-Spec package resultant track width increase also radically change weight transfer" and he was talking about the 17x8.5" wheels. 235/40R17 will be the tire size. So you all know all his products are custom made to his specs. Like his Facebook and check out his specs out.

so i will hold off on rims and tires and lower control arms (all suspension parts)

The picture is what they should look like as far as design. This is an 18" rim but he is still in R&d for the 18's but he said the 17's are pretty much ready for development.
