Wheels and tires for everyday use and the track

This is not the easiest of questions, let me do some research for you...

I guess the question I want to ask is what's everyone's opinion on the best tire and rim size, and set up, for someone using their car as a semi daily driver but also wants to go to the track every once in a while and lite em up? :rockon:

truthfully, there is not much out there, the 22's and such are too heavy for track use and the good 18 and 19 inch tires aren't quite the same size as stock, which means you would have to reprogram the PCM...however, BFG builds the drag radials in a 265/40-18 that you could use for track time. :santa:

UPDATE: Kumho has introduced the Ecsta SPT ultra high performance tire in a 245/50-18 speed rated w, great 3 season tire for all around performance driving...figure about $170 each plus mount and balance...
