Either Nittos DR, or BFGs DR, in 275/40/17.
275 is the way you want to go with stock wheels. My BFG drags fit near perfect on the factory 17x9s.
Do a search and you'll find Nittos to be the best for a daily driven car. You can get by with them better than the BFGs in the rain. Personally I only have to worry about being caught in the rain, as its a fair weather driver. The BFGs are pretty slippery in the wet weather, and don't last as long. They stick better in the dry, and they ride better as well.
I get 3k out of a set of BFGs with hard driving and burnouts. You could probably get 5k out of them before the tread is too low to be driven with in the rain.
Usually 8k or so out of the Nittos. They need to be heated up a little more at the track to get them really sticky though.
