Setup

After picking up an '03 6 spd about a month ago, I've been going through this forum on a pretty regular basis - really great info. With that said, I think I've figured out what I want to do with the car but wanted to make sure tit's the right way to go - that and ask a few questions along the way. What I'm really trying to achieve is a relatively conservative appearance, great handling and a few extra HPs.

Round 1:
- 18/7.5 SSR GT1s with 235/40s (> .45 offset)

Round 2:
- Comptech springs
- Koni Yellows
- Comptech sway bars

Round 3:
- Comptech headers
- Comptech CAI

A couple of questions:
- Will the suspension changes / tires fit ok?
- Will the suspension changes tighten up the handling; really looking to eliminate body roll. Will the resulting ride be overly harsh (I realize this is a subjective question)
- Will the suspension changes cause any issues in the winter; will be running the stock rims with winter tires.
- Will there be any issues with the CAI in the winter (cold / wet slushy weather)
- Will any of this work create warrantee problems?

Appreciate any help I can get.

1) not lowered, have same setup no rubbing. Do not know about lowered. BTW, what tires you are getting for the summer?
2) Sway bars alone will take care of body roll. Complete pack will be great.
3) no, i have 16" winter setup and nothing is changed.
4) no, just clean the filter each 15 kmiles/ 6 months.
5) no
