Ok here is my suspension wish list for my GT2 RWD

bilstein PSS10 coilovers with adaptive electronics to set sport or comfort . AST or Olin would be fine as well. Preferably a soft mount system to isolate any noise. I hate noisey Coilovers .

Eibach adjustable sway bars

High quality monoball swaybar end links - long endlinks to fit front. I think I can make these myself.

High quality steel or aluminum adustable control arms. Would love to see shim like adjustment like Porsche. Allows me to put aggressiive shim in place for track then pull it out for drive home.

Adjustable rear toe links

Sport bushings for all pivot points ....firm but not crazy.

Bushing thing has me wondering do we have opportunity to firm up motor and trans mounts? I haven’t noticed a lot of powertain flex but wonder if flexy flier suspension masks operating moving around?

And of course to compliment said suspension a 19x10.5 rear wheel and 19x9.5 front with Bridgestone RE 71 tires . Thinking 275 rear 245 front. Would want offsets that tuck wheels as far under fenders as possible.

The real dreamer in me says tasteful small flares and stick 19x12 with 315 rear 19x11 front with 295 tire. But seeing first wide body attempts on Stinger car looks a bit ricey with flares. I am on hunt for some tasteful euro style wheels. Was looking at BBS . I know this sounds weird but is love stock GT2 wheels to be widened. Kia did a great job picking wheel style for this car.

Could you imagine how the car would handle with this setup with moderate sport alignment? Would turn it into bmw eater.

While I’m dreaming have all ready ordered my eibach springs and considers sway bars .
