Thanks! It's gonna have to be a special wheel, and one that calls me. Though I'm no longer doing car shows, I still want to set myself apart just a bit. Mike knows how I roll and I'm confident he'll find what I need.

Awesome springs.. yes it's stiffer but that is to be expected but I had worse. Eibach Sportlines with my mustang dropped lower but it's much bouncier.

I like it enough where if I had to do it again I'll get the exact springs.

I like this setup and have been searching for a thread where someone talked about 22's on these cars. Now im not sure how the 25 series tires would work on these shitty roads.

Depending on your offsets, you may need to test fit them on an alignment rack so you can check clearance. You're close to the same boat as those that have had to move a harness to get rid of a bulge in the liner for those that have installed 305/25/20's. You'll probably just avoid the bulge (if you have it) with a good alignment (set rear chamber to -0.9) but any deflection in your IRS bushings could close such a small gap. A cradle lockout would be good insurance for you.

The front wheels are a +28 offset and the rears are +38. Mike and Best Wheel Deals are some of the best when it comes to offsets.

If shity roads are in your future I would pass and go with 20's , there have been a few occasions where I thought for sure I bent a rim . The only reason I haven't lowered the car yet is because I don't want the ride to get worse ... Hopefully somebody releases coilovers soon.

You said these are 10.5 front and 11.0 rear? Those offsets should be pretty good. Just remember, stand those wheels up. You don't get to tilt at that height. =)
