Turbo WS6 w/ 500+ RWHP what should I do? Hey guys,
I am looking for some advice as to what I should do. I have an STS turbo kit that is about to go on the car and my tires are about shot. My wheels are 17x9" Borbet Type T's (don't make them anymore). The car is a daily driver, I don't go to the track very often but I plan to go more once everything is set up right. I also may do some road course/autox in the future. Here are my options:
1. Get some Eagle F1 GS-D3's for now and get some cheap wheels with some ET Streets or slicks for when I want to go fast.
2. Sell the wheels for some 17x9's and 17x10.5's in the back and get some wide sticky tires in the back that are still good for daily driving.
3. Other (explain)

im in the same boat. i have the 500rwhp car and i use MT ET Streets on my stock 9.5's and i dont spin in ANY gear at ANY speed. IMO its pointless to get a fast car and use shitty tires
goodluck with the STS build, its very fun and a lot of people dont expect it
