OK well I made up my mind....the 19s are going on the car!!! Now I will need to get spacers, studs, new suspension, and tires....
So my question to you guys is what suspension should I go with. I'm not going to go with a complete coilover (shocks & springs) because the highest ride height I can find for any product is the current height I have right now. The problem I will be facing is the flares. By adding the spacers this will push out my rims into the flares. If I do this without changing the suspension the flares will be in contact with the tires, as the tires are already tucked right now. If I get a spring that raises the car .2" I will still have the problem with blowing out the flares while driving. Im thinking of getting the H&R OE Springs (.75" drop) as that will give me a little less then an inch from the flares. (note the flares make the wheel well gap smaller in relation to wheel gap) only problem with this is I will be raising the overall heigh of the car by 1.1'' and wonder how that will make things look....I really dont wasn't to go with coilovers as they are a pain IMO but i would be able to adjust the height to my liking...
Suspension:
CURRENT: Nuespeed (1.85" drop)
Ground Control coilovers (.5 to 3.5" drop)
Skunk2 coilovers (no information)
H&R Sport Springs (1.5" drop)
H&R OE Springs (.75" drop)
Spacers:

I'll be getting the DRS setup..which will require me to get the spacers pressed into the hub..will I be able to do this?
Tires:
Taking suggestions....
