Which do you suggest for spirted daily driving (no road course, most likely a few drag days)?

Also I bought the car new and have since put 5500 miles on it with 10-15 runs at a drag strip with minor burnouts. Should I looking at getting 2 new rears or just the one replacement?

I have lots of questions so thank you in advance for any help.

Lots of questions in here lol...

1) which ever tires you choose to get. Get the matching fronts. Also, in my personal choice I would go with the RE-11's... This is from my experience with them and they have always proven themselves.

2) both tires would be good for Daily driving. However, the RE-11's can bridge over into the Drag and Road Course arena with better performance figures.

3) 305's will look more aggressive with or without the drop they are just wider...

4) Please do not mix match tires! You will find out the hard way which side has traction and which side doesnt as your spinning out... I have done that and its not fun. Dont risk it! Stay with one brand/model on all four corners. if you have stock tires get a replacement stock tire simple as that.
