These cars can handle up to a certain % increase or decrease in tire OD to correct the speedo, at least seeing what is said on SVTP that is. You don't really need a tune, but just a programmer that can adjust the values in the ECU via the handheld.

I personally try to stick as close to the OE tire OD as I can.

But we need to know tire widths and types of tire you are wanting to run.

I was thinking Falken 452 with 255 up front and 275 or 285 out back. Te bigger the better out back just don't know how big I can go. I do plan on dropping it with some sport lines as well.

Do at least a 295 rear on a 10" rim. Or go bigger.

In the front, I would do a 9-9.5 if you can get the correct offset. Some rims are only 8.5 front. I would then run a 255-275 tires depending on rim width.

Unless you want to run a square setup
