Advice on Suspension Upgrades

I am planning on the doing the following upgrades:

KW Variant 3 Coilovers
Progress F/R Sways
RPF1 17X9 +35
Hawk HP Plus Pads

Questions:

Do I need endlinks for the sways?
What tire size best matches this rim size?
Is there vendor I could buy all these upgrades from?

I would not use stock/oem end links with aftermarket sway bars. I had Tanabe GF210 Springs on my 8 and my oem end links bent back. Get the AP sway bars and end links. They are the shiznit!
I sent you a PM.

I priced the KW variant 3 coilovers a few months back, click the link for the best price.
