the 8s would be 4 lug and the 9s would be 5 lug

thatd probably be most peoples assumption, but actually ironically he has a 4 lug stoptech kit in front, the 5 lug in the rear are for lower offsets he didnt need in front for tire clearance

To the OP yeah the mentioned sizes would fit fine and BTW coilovers cause more clearance problems than solutions, just FYI.

Rule #1 is test fit before you buy, no matter what.
