Unless someone has a used set, I would check TireRack for a set of drag radials for the rear or just 4 high perf. tires if you need to rotate...

I got my first pair of Nittos on my 1986 Iroc-Z and every car I have bought since has gotten a pair of them...I also like BFG's and the Higher End Goodyears...But for my money Nitto's are all I use...Except on the track then I love the Mickey E/T's...

By Upper-End Goodyears I mean like the Eagle F1 Series...

I dont think you can go wrong with Nittos for the price and performance...

M/T E/T's are where its at hands down...

The Nitto's have a 300 Tread Patern Wear...Thats not bad at all...And they stick pretty good...Ride noise is minimal as well...
