If you want grip and you want them to last...Nitto Drag raials in the rear and some regular Nittos up front....cost you less than 500 for all 4...but rain will suck bad.....
if you dont want DR's....some BFG Radial TA's will work and cost you about $400 fr all 4

water/rain not an issue, car isn't driven in the rain
Thanks for the suggestions so far...keep them coming. I want to get the very best I can afford. I was told if I'm going to do it do it right the first time.

you think 255/40's would be good? I forgot all about tire size.

I was just throwing out a general tire size...40's will give you a little better ride...if you want more handling go with 35's, but the ride will be a little harsher...

I just bought some BFG KDW II's the reviews were all pretty good, and I liked the last set of BFG's I had.

Its just killing me that I cant test them out yet.. I leave here on the 24th, and I still have to get them mounted and balanced..
