I have the Dallara kit on order.

Strut Info needed DIY Coilovers
I'll use this thread to determine/document all the odds & ends I need to resolve for the install.
My main concerns right now are finding wheels that will work well, whether custom (DiamondRacing, etc) or Honda aftermarket, etc that are readily available, and figuring out the correct spacers based on that.
I've messaged a few folks that I found with Dallara type body kits to hopefully get some specific wheel/spacer info based on their experience.
I'm going to do DIY coilovers, based on and with info provided by Doug (rx1900).
I'm trying to wrap my head around the permutations that arise with varying wheel offsets and backspacing, the relationship of the two, and how to do the math to figure all that out. I hate math. It doesn't come readily to me, so what may be an obvious computation for many requires pictures, diagrams charts, etc., for it to make any sense to me.
Charlie (Serpent Auto) suggested I stick with 4bolt - 4bolt spacers. I had asked him about the feasibility of going from 4x98 to 5x108 (to possibly use Volvo wheels :nuts
So if not custom wheels from Diamond or similar, then likely 4x100 to take advantage of all the Honda stuff.
Problem with that is the lack of dish on FWD based offset wheels.
Matt's backspacing recommendations:
"Regarding the wheels.
Front: 15x7 - 87mm backspacing. 195/45/15 or 195/50/15 tire.
Rear 15x9 - 100mm backspacing with 225/45/15, or 245/40/15"
Some diagramatic examples:

So, any input would be most appreciated!
