i have 245/45/17's on rite now. way to small anyways.... s/c was installed a couple weeks ago. suspension - eibach prokit, j&m upper/lower control arms
think id live with the chips. new wheels FTL. but if you like em then hey. you'll find something else in a couple weeks anyways :evil::evil::evil::evil:
i think your best bang for the buck to go forged would be to buy a short block and start from there. there are a bunch of places you can shop around - mmr, livernois, frpp, etc
