Got some 245/40/18 Kumho Ecsta PS31's for the front of my car. I was going to order some Sumitomo HTR ZIII to match my rears, but the supplier didn't have any in stock. These tires are a bit thicker than the Hankook V12 I had before, but they're not as wide as the Michelin Super Sports I had before that.
When I got home, these bolts and gaskets finally arrived for me to finish up the steering rack install this weekend. Special thanks to Ren/Luxor for helping me get the part numbers and sending them out to me.
Now, I'm waiting on goodridge to finish making my brake lines, so I can get the car back on the road.

I got the results back on my alignment and my setup prior was extremely off. Not only was my steering wheel completely off center, the toe was off by several degree and the two front wheels were facing two different directions. The guy at work had to adjust my entire rack and straighten everything out.
This is the first time my steering wheel has been completely straight in close to eight years. It's like a new car now.

I'm in the process of swapping my gte and parts from my 5spd to a nicer condition auto. I have a lot more things to worry about other than wheels, but you know how that goes lol. Thanks again

Sweet, thanks man. That means my 10.5+26 will be basically the same(2mm difference) as your 9.5+15. This talk about wheel disk with you and gerbb has me thinking about wheel options again

Good luck with your swap! I know what you mean about having more important things to worry about than wheels. Wheels are the only part that I don't need more of, but I somehow have wheels all over my house lol.

I'm pretty nervous but also excited about the swap. I've never done anything but suspension, brakes, and tune ups before so this should be interesting lol. I really love these cars and engines and with the FSRM and all the amazing info on this forum, I hope to be able to do any work needed since I plan on keeping this car the rest of my life. I also just don't trust taking my car to get worked on by someone who doesn't give a ****** about my car, just another car they need to work on this week to get they're paycheck. Time for me to learn
