Default PSS9 vs. Rims

I am currently looking into purchasing the pss9 for my car. My s2k currently has the stock rims. In order to get the best traction i would need to go wider on the rear rims. So what if anyone has the pss9's with stock rims on their car if you could tell me how it handles that would be awesome. I would hate to buy these coilovers and be let dwn because the traction on the rear wheels was still inferior.

I don't have stock tires, but you will gain more control and reduce your oversteering with coilovers.

Get the Pss9's, you won't regret it. Take it to the track and tell me if your stockies are the limiting factor.

I think you'll find that you will have plenty of fun and do well with good tires.
