What size to go with?

[GA_Dave]

Hey guys

I am about to go FI on my car, and was wanting to get the opinions of people here. Current projected number are around 350, and I will be making over 500 once I build the engine later this year.

I personally can't stand the look of my tires sucked in like they are stock. Ideally, I'd like to have it as flush as possible, with maybe a little poke. I was thinking of running 17 x 9 or 9.5 all the way around, but I've also considered doing a 17 front/18 rear or 18's all the way around. What would you guys suggest? The car will be a fun weekend car, but will see little to no track time.

Mainly, I'd like to have enough tire to harness the power, but not so much that it destroys the handling capability of the car. Looking at the fitment thread, it looks like there are lots of options for relatively flush fits no matter what size I go with, so fitment is not a concern.

The car is currently lowered approximately 40mm in the front and 30mm in the back on a set of BC Racing Coilovers. This was mainly to close the stock wheel gap. I am willing to raise the car again as long as the wheel gap stays closed at the end of the day.

Thanks for the help!
