The tire rack will work fine, just sand it down to bare metal, as for the power wire, there is a spot to drill under the steering hub in the engine bay.

If you look under your steering wheel you will see a removable panel (it's diamond shaped) Drill there.

I have 2 power wires drilled under the steering hub, Then I just pulled them over to run them under the kicks and under the carpet. I have my grounds on a bolt that was placed in the upper left side of the trunk. Everything was sanded down first before grounding though.

Since im automatic and dont need the clutch plate, i drilled through that to run the 0 gauge power wire in. As for the ground Remove the bottom half of the seat and sand down one of the seat belt bolts, that is the best spot for a ground as it is thick metal.
