a fender roll will be necessary once you lower the car along with an alignment to add camber. 2.5F and 3.0R are recommended.

Maybe I missed it but I have been researching this all week... I understand the bore on the front hub is larger than the rear - but I also know that hubcentric rings ARE needed. I have had rota wheels on my miata and my civic si prior to the s2000, and those both had hubcentric rings so that the wheels would mount centered onto the hub correctly. What size do we need (outer and inner od)? And for you guys running the grids, did you just buy four 17"x9" wheels & have the fronts bored to fit the front hub or did they fit just fine w/ hubcentric rings? Lastly should I be concerned about my VSA going ballistic if I have four tires all the same size? From what I have understood it shouldnt be but I just want to get everything straight before I start forking money over for anything. I also assume I can just swap over the tpms from the 08 stock wheels to the rotas. Lastly, my car is bone stock as of now - will 255/40/17s look right up front? I honestly like the idea of rotating my tires if I have them all the same size.

Your Suzuka is hot by the way .
