Most guys are doing 18x10.5 square with 275+ square (I think hotrod is even up in the 300s square). Just go with what your skill dictates. Im going to be running federal tires as they're cheap and perform well. Also considered the RS4 from hankook, and Next SUR tires. Most any 200tw tire will do but I've read those three have the best life on track as well as retain their grip the longest due to heat on the track. I've heard from many people that the RE71r loses is capability after it gets too much heat from track sessions (more of an autoX or Time Attack tire)

My set up will be:
18x10.5 +15 275/35/18 square for the better part of this year

Hope I see you at a jzilla event this year!

Edit: if you go with a square set up its usually advised to throw a stiffer front sway up front and leave the rear alone. Not sure what you currently have but just thought I'd put it out there
