Need some serious suggestions on this one

I have an 03 Evo and I need to get new tires, rotors and possibly a new turbo. I am just wondering what everyones suggestions would be for brand and website I can buy them at? As far as the turbo goes I am looking for something pretty similar to stock maybe a little bigger and something that will mount right up without many other upgrades. For the tires I am looking for a 245/40 that is good in rain and will last awhile. And for the rotors I am looking for a slotted brand any suggestions will help me out alot?

Thanks
Michael

Go with an EVO 9 turbo. You won't have to upgrade ( just an install kit) anything. ************** for the rotors... cheap and they work very well. I have had them on my car for year and i have been really happy with them for the price.

Tires...it depends on what you want out of the car....handling or long lasting...

I suppose I'll wenture my opinion on this one. For tires look at the dunlop direzas (think that's how it spelled) Z1 star specs. They're prety amazing as far as max perfornance tires go: great in wet/dry, but bad in snow. i'm surprised there aren't a lot more suggestions about turbos. i'm still running stock and like it just fine for now. A friend of mine has the FP green and loves it like a second wife. I'd do like the person above said and search. Rotors are fun. I've had brembo crossdrilled before and think the world od them. They're on the pricy side though. Rotora makes great stuff also, along with stoptech, endless and even baer( I might catch some flack with the last one). If you're simply a spiritd street driver chech out rotopros. Good durrable and inexpensive. Have fun, hopes this helps a bit.
