Mostly, I want to be able to launch the car at the drag strip with little to no spin. I'm considering going with the RE-11s due to opinions of people on here because I have no experience with tire performances with this car. This is the first set of tires that I'm buying. I do plan to be making about 450whp with a nitrous setup in the future but, honestly, will probably have done went through this new set of tires.

If I can stick to stock sizes with the RE-11s and get really good traction, on and off the track at around 320whp, I'd definitely rather go that route. So what would you do in my shoes?
