To each his own, but doing all of this for a street car strikes me as misguided.

Track wheels: big wheels and big, sticky tires
Street wheels: cheap wheels and cheaper tires
This is great advice and really should be taken seriously. You'll hate the big tires on the street anyways as they'll follow every imperfection in the road.
