LS1auto, Oops, I didn't catch that you wanted the tires to fit stock rims. I'm sure 275 is about as wide as you will fit on 17x9 rims. I would recommend Falken Azenis RT615K. They are on sale at the largest online tire dealer right now for $123. It is a clearance sale, they wont last long!! They are being replaced by the "+" line. If you want a little more bite, get the RT615K+. They are a softer compound tire. These are not drag radials, these are grippy, good handling tires that do fair in the rain. About $200. With your mods and gears, traction could be an issue for harder compound tires.
