Default 2 questions guys

First off which tire do you guys recommend for a 01 Z06 that never sees the rain and never sees the track? I drive it on nice days and thats about it. It does have around 430 whp and I may do a little racing on the streets with my buddies but nothing to amount to anything. The second question is about my door lock. Yesterday I had my windows tinted and the drivers side lock quit working with the button and the fob. I have to lock it by hand now. The passenger side works fine and all the other drivers side door controls still work. It clicks like it wants to move but the flapper does nothing. I took the door panel off and tried drying everything out thinking maybe it got wet from all the water the tint guys used. Any help on either question would be much appricated.

Thanks guys.

Yes they are stock size rims. I'm not crazy about the MT due to the treadware, I'm sure its not very high.
