Why not lose some offset and throw a 255 on there. 9 inch is plenty wide enough.

If your running street tyres and still have power steering, chuck on the biggest tyres you can get. Front end grip is hard to gain so bigger is better. Worry about the rear when you have the front dialled. Thats what circuit racing/time attack has taught me.
