(however it would be much better to use your 18" wheels you mentioned)

Thanks to you and everybody else for the suggestions. Why is it bad to use the 19's? The reason I wanted to was because the profile is the same whether I go 18 or 19, so the tires end up being about an inch or so shorter than stock.

So anyways I ended up just replacing the two fronts on my 18's with two Hoosier R5's and am hoping that I can get everything fine tuned and worked out within the next few trackdays as far as best setup.
