Nitto 555r's. Mine lasted forever. Through many track trips and almost constant daily driving.

Are they a good all around tire, or just for racing?

I saw a 93 Z28 dyno a while back and stock was putting down 233HP to the wheels. With your mods and if you can work the track, it could be even. You need to get some MT drag radials and work on getting some great 60' times. Just don't launch to high in the rpms and snap an axle. you could win then for sure.

price good or high?
I've seen them somewhere online, 275/50/15's, for $130 each....

They're great tires for driving/racing. I was pulling 1.6 short times on them with a 100% stock suspension and drove the car to/from the track.
