Re: What tires
Sorry for asking so many questions, but I'm just narrowing it down for myself and other's who might be thinking the same thing.
Ok, last question.... This going to be on the truck full time, or just swap them on/off?

Re: What tires
The best thing would be to get a second pair of rims and get some track radials. Swap them out when at the track or goofing around the city.

 My suggestions would be (in no particular order) Nitto 555R BFGoodrich Drag Radial Toyo Proxes TQ Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial Just some ideas. You might have a particular liking for one brand of tires over the other, I don't know.
