I spin way too much Need Some new Tires!!

Wow, everyone suggests 555Rs... only problem with that is he says he needs them for daily driving. I wouldn't go near the Rs or RIIs on a daily driver unless I had like 500rwhp and could afford to spend $500 on tires every 5-10k miles. BFGs are even worse... <5k miles from what I've usually heard.

I'd get some 265 555 radials. I've got 285 NT555s on the back of mine and I have to work pretty hard to break them loose. Either really romp on it right from a stop or go really fast around a corner... Got 2-3k on mine and they look brand new... I'm looking for 25-30k out of these.

I am getting the 555r drags since I am heading up to T&J performance next week for a 2.8 pully and Tims' (Cobra killer for the newbs) custom EFI solutions tune. I could be right at the 500hp mark so I am going to need these tires even more than I need now :D

Just nuts man... Still want to see your car. I'm probably moving to tampa in the next couple months. :shock: And BTW, you should be fine with 265 kumhos all the way around man... those things rock!
 
I really don't know what should I get. Lots of people suggest Nittos while other BFG. I have to make up my mind. I drive my car less than 3000 miels a year, so I'm not concerned about the tread wear. I could even afford to by a set of tires and wheel for track use only. What would you guys do?
