I'm working on finding a set of wheels to replace the stockers. #2, is that the stock shifter is kind of spongy. So what short shifter does everyone recommend? I see that b&m makes one, and there was a group buy for shifters on this forum, butnim don't know which to go after. Also, if anyone knows of a good installer in Houston please let me know! Thanks!
I got a Hebi Bebi Replica knob from Grafixpressions and it made the shifter feel a million times better. I think a lot of people on the forum who have changed their knobs can agree that a weighted shift knob really makes the shifts fell so much better on the car.

GrafiXpressions - Express yourself in vinyl form!...

For the offsets of the wheels, a lot of people do a quick fix for the OEM wheels and just use spacers. Depending if you have sport or Base model, most people are doing 20 and 25mm spacers

The TWM short shifter takes all the play out of it ,it makes it feel very mechanical and of course a little shorter in throw.

+1 on the twm short shifter. I have that setup with a twm piston shift knob and the shifts feel real solid.
