Sounds like a plan but good luck getting some 9" wide rims on a budget!! If anybody knows where you can get budget (ie cheaper than Image) 9*15's with an offset around ET37 PLEASE let me know!
Now that I have to run on a budget I would do something like buy a COUPLE of the cheapest 8" wide wheels I could buy (secondhand/ebay/scrap yard), sling a couple of good condition tyres on them. Try them on one end of the car for half a practice then stick your normal combination back on for the rest and compare the feel and stop watch.
If they make that end grip/the other end slide then proceed immediately to the nearest wheel manufacturer and get the lightest wheels you can afford made.
Then you are going to have to spend a few more practice sessions with a tyre temp probe/gun fine tuning.
