Default For the Track

I have 18 x 9.5 in the front and 18 x 10.5 in the back zo6 wheels. I ran a 13.3 with them (with Kuhmo Ecsta's) two years ago with just the basic intake and exhaust. Ill be going to the track again this summer, but i think i want to put some nice DR tires or something on my stock wheels. This will probably help me get better traction and put out a better time.........(of course with the addition of the other mods in my sig).....What kind of tires or setup should I go with for the stockers??? Thanks

Its an auto, my friend is also selling his SSF TC for $350. It was sent out to TCI and they rebuilt it. So I am also debating if I should jump on that deal. Also what is the biggest tire you can go with on a stock 16" wheel....thanks
