Default again aerodynamics

hello everyone.

i have idea to do some modifications and need an advice

i have ings n-spec bodykit on my 2003MY AP1 and gtc-200 wing.
i want to improve aero balance and downforce by installing splitter, canards and diffuser.

what you think about APR splitter? is it good for ings front bumper, or it'll make nothing in terms of downforce?
same about APR diffuser.

Also i have OEM fenders and 205/225 tires. I''m planing to install 255/255 R17 on 17x9 wheels. Will they fit OEM fenders with no modification, or what mods i need to do?

Thank you, people

The APR diffuser is small and not worth it in my opinion. Order a WASP Composites race splitter. 550 shipped to your door and comes with chassis mounted brackets unlike the APR. They also produce a rear diffuser but I have not personally used it. I loved with my WASP splitter only sold it because I went with a spoon bumper and had to order a different one from them. Pretty sure they can make one specifically for your bumper also.

if the 17x9 wheels you get are a +63 offset you will not need to roll fenders. the tires will rub the liners but its never bothered me

Ings sells canards for its front bumper. Check out their site.

Had little research and it is hard to decide

what you think? Will it fit? On all wheels Spoon cr93 R17 9.5" +63 with spoon caliper(only front) and 265 tires and voltex overfenders on Ings n-spec bodykit?

And guess what it will grab when it rubs through that linear? Your fenders are going to get damaged. OP the spoon 9.5+63 will need a roll in the front at least. 265 is unnecessary on a 9.5 wheel. 255 all around is fine.

Not yet. 4 years, many spins, and no problems yet. Cars pretty low but has 700# springs...
