Default month away from first run on track.. installing new rims after that

it will be the first time bringing my 96 z28 to the track. im pretty sure i have my car tuned up right

what i have done is

comp cam cc500, beehive spring kit, 1.6 roller tips, hardened pushrods, mad tune
full exhaust lt pacesetter ory gmmg cat back
k&n cai, new elbow and air foil stock 48
richmond 3.73, rebuilt trans w/ transgo shift kit and performance clutch discs nothing dramatic with torque converter but it is new and one step above stock (performence replacement)
mickey thompson ET radials 255/50/16 on stock rims
slp suspension kit eibach springs, bilstein shocks. jegster torque arm, umi panhard rod and rear lower control arms

anyone guess my 1/4? im thinking low 13's ish i would really like 12.9 car has 160K lots of highway and easy city miles.

after the track im throwing on some 17" zr1 9.5 rims. does 275/40/17 all around sound right? or should i get something a little taller for the rear?

Should be in the 12's easy. Curious what your 60' will be with the Mickey's. With the auto/gears and tires you should definitely be in the 12's.

I feel like such a retard when I go to the track, 13.4-5 all day at 109.9. Go 2.5 60'!
