I have to admit reading my thread now instead of at 5 am youre right .
I have 275 40r 17 kuhmo asx now and do more weekend street driving than track .I have been playing around with 30 to 40 mph launches since from a dead stop is out of the question unless you like tire smoke .

For street use I use Nitto D/R and they are fine and grip good for the street but the car makes 400 rwhp. M/T ET street radial is better but life is not as long.
