I'm not advanced enough for slicks yet so most likely high performance street tires until I'm ready to move up to slicks.

I will most likely go your route: rolled fenders but have not ruled out widebody yet.

I'm looking at a set of BBS's that look like the Vert/Infini wheels.

One thing I have been thinking about is the DTSS. The rear is supposed to toe out at > 0.5G's but that's on stock tires. If I end up going wider tires (more grip) I'll have to disable the DTSS otherwise I"ll end up with an oddly handling car in the corners....no?

Which makes perfect sense. They are sacrificing safety either way. lol
