-Tire question: What would you do?
I'm looking to get new tires
fonts: 275/40/17
Rear: 315/30/18
now my question is what would be the better decision?
1. Get decent back/ decent front tires.
2. Get really good hooking rears / cheapo fronts.
Money is a big issue (being 17) and I don't know if getting crappy fronts would play a huge difference.
This is a Daily driver spring/fall and going to be 500hp car. car is also a 4L60E
Thanks for all responces.

my car isnt near 500 hp but i can relate being 19 and having my Trans Am as a DD. I went the good rears/cheap fronts. I have new Nitto 555Rs on the rear and worn down Firestone Firehawks on the front. I would go that route. Cheap fronts should be 80-120 each. Good luck with your search.
I bought OEwheels C6Z06 deep dish black w/machined lip and hopefully I can sell the ws6's with 2000miles on the tires to make up for the new tires im getting..

I will leave the Bike for that
but a high speed on-ramp every now and again wouldn't be to bad.

but I will probably be getting good rears. I still have my stock firebird wheels with the really cheap 255/50/16 or whatever they are for some burnouts ha.
its stupid that highschool kids think your can isnt fast because you cant smoke tires into third like they can with bald *** 255's ha. oh well ill def be winning some races from a dig.
