I have a new set of FMS springs(not installed yet), and a set of caster /camber plates(not installed yet) I ordered from hotpart.com.. I have a few questions..

1. What struts/shocks should I go with? Koni Yellows or Bilstein Sports? I've heard the Koni's are more aggressive(stiff), if this is true, that's what I want..

Koni yellows are too much for a street car. Koni reds are much more like it. I would actually recommend Tokikos, or Bilsteins.

2. Where should I start with setting up the caster/camber plates? This handling stuff is all new to me.. I plan on doing some autocrossing when the spring and summer rolls around. One of my friends runs his Porsche and is getting me into it.. What would a good starting point be for an aggressive street set-up?

Set them to about -1 degree camber fors starters. Not very agressive for the street, and wont wear out your tires. Max out the caster, and slight toe in (maybe 1/8 to 1/16).

3. One more question: What kind and size tires can and should I get for my stock pony wheels for the track and street?

Thanks...

245-45's look really nice. 245-50's look a little tall (for me). Brands are a whole new can of worms. go to www.tirerack.com and pick some...
