Also, I'm considering the riser plates. Is I'm correct, when I think they'll alter the roll center?
The car comes standard with 2mm riser plates which the suspension mounts sit on.

You can alter the roll centre depending upon whether or not you use the riser plates and how many shims you add, to alter the distance between the suspension mounts and the chassis.

Fairly common practices include adding a 1mm shim to the rear riser plate (giving 3mm total) and removing the front riser plate altogether and only running a 1mm shim (giving 1mm total).
