LCA's, UCA's, kyb adj. shocks/ coilovers, Drag Radials... Or maybe drag springs instead of the KYB's

He pretty much covered it right there. Maybe some SFCs too

Are they BFG street or drag radials? If street tires what the hell did you expect

Nitto drag radials have a very long tread life, I've heard of people getting 15k+, I have BFG dr's and they have lasted about 5k with probably another in them if I don't burn them up this summer.
