Hey everyone, I'm looking for a little bit of help and suggestions on making my Pro street Camaro more of a pro touring daily driver kind of set up.

Aside from DynaMatting and updating the interior, I foremost wanted to do new rims and tires. I have a four link rear suspension by Moroso and a 9 inch ford rear end with 355 gears.
Question: With a narrow rear end like that is there anyway to achieve more of a widebody setup with deep dish rims and tires to improve the overall cornering? Looking for suggestions on rim and tire size, offset and suspension/ shock adjustment suggestions.

Relevant to suspension I'm looking for suggestions on how to improve the cornering with the four link set up. Would changing out the shocks make any difference ? It seems to have a pretty rough ride right now with the adjustable shocks that are on there

For some reason I can't upload photographs to this thread so here is the link to the eBay (http://www.ebay.com/) listing for photo references of how it looks now :

I'm actually thinking of doing something similar to my firebird, so I'm tuning in.

Unfortunately, you haven't provided enough specific information for anyone to offer any meaningful help. Pics of your suspension would be helpful as well. How wide is your axle? Are your shocks adjustable? What is the spring rate? Etc.
