sticky tires hey my tires r bald, and i need sum sticky ones but that are plenty streetable cuz i drive a lot with the car. but heres the deal, i can get a hefty discount (50-60% off) on only certain brands of tires. those being: bfg, m/t, cooper, general, yokos, and sum other off brands. however, i really like nittos, the 555's in particular, but i dont get a discount on em. i was thinkin about gettin sum 255/50/16 m/t et street radials but im afraid they might lean too close to strip as opposed to street seeing as i do hit the highway quiet often. i just would hate to pass this discount up tho.
let me no what ya think? any advice would be great. i got a z so i got the 16" stockers.
appreciate it

I highly recomend the BFG tires. The KDW is a good one to stick with if you dont hit the track often. If you want the best tire for traction, get the BFG drag radial. You can limp around in the rain a bit, and they wear decently. Ive seen a few get 5-7000mi on them and are still using them. From my own experience they hook the best at the track when the tread is all gone.

on other tire sites i see great feedback for the bfg t/a drag radial 2. everyone has said theat they hook awesome all the time. also, i hear positive fedback from the bfg kdw 2 as well. im looking into both of those now so if i get them both they will match.
