problem with vsa

hi all
i'm new to this threat..
nice to meet you

i bought my 03 tls at sep 2002. at around 12000 miles, car started shaking when brake, so i took it to dealer had the roter resurfaced.. at around 17000 miles, vsa light went on right after i start my engine.. take to dealer.. they replace the brake sensor.. light turned normal for 2 weeks.. took the tls to dealer again.. explanning the problem.. they call acura tech support.. and leave my car there for 2 days to change a brand new vsa computer box.. until now 19000.. vsa light never turn on without i turn off vsa.. but the rotor start to feeling shakky.. i know that i have to resurface the rotor AGAIN..! very pissed.. so i check with brembo and bought a turismo brake system.. problem occur when i install it.. the caliber is way so wide! the oem wheel can't fit.. and i already cut off the dust shield.. call the the brembo company.. and they said.. "Oh.. it fit your car but can't fit with original wheel, sucker!" leave me no choic to return the brake system.. but brembo said once i open it.. can't return.. i didn't even use it yet! so have to buy a aftermarket wheel or install wheel spacer.. but the wheel spacer will make the wheel stick out very much.. it will look mucho amigo! SO.. i carefully check out with volk racing.. and order the TE37 white color, 19x8, with offset 48, and a 245/35/19 bridegstone S-03 tires..

with OEM underbody kit, my car still look like a freakin SUV:wow:.. trying to find a set of GOOD suspension.. but i am afraid that when lower too much.. the tire will touch my fender..

So, right now two things bother me..
anyone know or have the same problem with me about the vsa?
can u give me a suggestion about a GOOD suspension.? spring, damper, or coil over? as long as it can lower the car a little bit and won't touch my wheel.. thanx

thanks limitedTLS
wheel shop strongly suggest me using a 235 tire..
but.. i really like this s-03 tire.. and it came only with 245 for 19
so i call mackin industries.. and ya.. i do can put a 245 tire..
but will have problem if i lower the spring..
so for now.. i'll just try the H&R oe sport spring..
hope it'll work..
