good sticky street/track tires i have yet to get my car inspected and im worried about my tires being to low. if i do need new tires what would you recommend. i want somthing that will give my some sweet traction on dry pavement,still do decent in rain and be a decent track tire. i was thinking the nitto 555s but i dont know much about tires so any help would be great. thanks

I have had FANTASTIC luck with Bridgestone Potenzas, especially the RE910s or RE750s if you can find them. Great all-around tires. Good ride, great grip wet and dry, and they will flat out stick like glue in a straight line. Poleposition S02s are also pretty good.

and another thing.
the mickeys wear really shitty.
they peel apart in little chunks,
where the nittos wore down evenly.
in their defense,
they hook really good
and who cares about the rain?
you shouldnt be driving like that in the rain anyway.
and if you like to anyway,
at least its fun sliding around isnt it?
