I run 265/40/18 MT ET Streets. I pulled a 1.69 60' in them Friday....

My buddy uses M&H 275/45/18s - he pulled some 1.5x 60' (his car makes over 600whp)

275/40/17 MT ET Streets on stock wheels is a popular set-up... check out the classifieds.. usually got some great deals.

Nittos are good for the street, not the track. They don't seem to have any consistency....as far as hooking. I would go M&H or MT.

i think brenspeed sells them already mounted on some take-off rims, that way you don't have to run them all the time, just switch them out for track days.

Brenspeed has the tires as well as the tire+rims. I don't know if they come mounted.

I bought a set of 17s and MT ET streets from Brenspeed, they were not mounted. Good track tires, and I will occasionally run them on the street (when no chance of rain) when I feel like hurting some feelings.
