A work in progress, mostly inspired by advice from all you guys on the forum. Began with a stock 91T which had been through various 14" tires, the most successful of which were the now unavailable Dunlop D60M2's. Updates can be expected as the modifications proceed...

1. 91T
2. Stock springs, KYB AGX dampers
3. Front: wheels 15x6 +46 used from Diamante (temporary), tires Hankook RS2 205/50 15
4. Rear: wheels 16x8 +48 Slipstream, tires Hankook RS2 245/45 16
Alignment data coming soon, I hope.

Performance is significantly improved over stock. The AGX dampers don't absorb small bumps comfortably or well...though they handle larger motions (body roll and pitch) capably. The tires seem just great on average 2-lane roads in the usual condition of slight deterioration. Still messing with tire pressures and balance. Haven't pushed the limits yet but up to about 0.8g lateral acceleration (measured) everything is pretty solid. Not quite Just Right yet, but getting there.
