Default Need advice on tires.....

I want a tire that hooks on the street and the track. I am gonna be driving on them everyday, so slicks are outta the question(for now). I've heard Nitto's but the which ones? Any advice would really help out. Thanks.

Do you drive your car in any type of weather??? If you do I would just go with street tires, if not then maybe a set of drag radials. Is your rear stock?? These are all questions to ponder when you go looking for tires

yeah the rearend is stock and yes I do drive in all weather types. These tires will only stay on until it starts getting cold and then I will put the street tires back on.

Had a good time with my BFG DR's. Lasted about 10 months of daily driving and some track passes. Do get caught out in the rain. It will be hydroplane city no matter the speed.
