Will the car be an all weather use car or just fair (summer/spring) weather?

It will be mostly summer time. But I don't want to die in an unexpected rain shower. I'd like some decent wet traction.

I use the Nitto 555R and they are good street tires. They ride good and handle good. I can't seem to get them to hook at the track but they hook good on the street. So they are real good for street duty.

Thanks Tj.
Are you using four nittos or just the rears? Are the loud?

Just an update on an old thread.
I got the BFG G-Force sport.
245-50-16 front
255-50-16 rear.
Great set of tires at 10lbs of boost. I can break em loose around corners, but only if I try. Hasn't rained out here yet, and I won't drive in rain anyway.
