I've always been a fan of Lakewoods. 50/50s in back, go with 90/10s up front. I have 70/30s up front and they are good, but I would like to step it up to some 90/10s.

tokico illuminas 5 way adjustable, ride quality slightly improved when set to medium, handles tons better on the stiff setting. i can't comment on what it did to my 60' because i never took it to the track since the install, but i can say if i put the fronts on the softest setting the front end really jumps up and it seems to hook alot better.
