3. Q: How does wider tire affect steering/driving?
4. Q: How does wide body kit affect the wheel/driving? or irrelevant?
5. Q: What tire brand should I avoid? (for daily drive)

2. normal should be fine since they go on the lugbolts themselves, not the spacer. go too wide with the spacer and you will need longer lug studs though
3. it gives better traction due to a wider contact area. but in some cases, too wide actually hurts performance (ie, the "stretched tire" fad
4. looks like crap with the wrong size wheels. plus 99% of wide body kits are poorly made and look like crap.
5. any brand that is advertised with the words "cheap" or "used" in the title. also a good bet woudl be to avoid tire brands names "billy-bob tires" or "sam's choice"
6. all of this information could have been found with a search
