Thank you again for the input and I understand everything you guys are saying. I should go 9.5 but those prodrives are really tempting. I guess this would be another way for me to look at it. What would lap times be between 8.5 and 9.5 be running the same tires. I know there is a lot of other factors and feel of the tire changes.

I understand that, that thread was very informative. I'm surprised that it was 1sec per inch, I thought it would have been less.
For argument sake would a 245 squared setup on 8.5in be "faster" than a 255 on 8.5.
I'm leaning more towards the wider wheels again now.

Appearance aside. 10" will provide you with a substantial performance upgrade (assuming your going for a 255 non stagger set up) You will get better grip, turn in response and overall better handling then on a 8.5" wheel.

Again this really comes down to what you value most. If you value lap times the forgestars will be the best. If you value looks then it is debatable. Make a list of your priorities here and pick which wheels most closely matches those.

that being said OP, 10j and 9.5 take some work in easy to find offsets. fender roll and some lowering are a must if you are going for appearance at all.
