What Kind Of Tires?

I'm going to put some Nitto Drag's on the back, what should I put on the front? Should I get the Nitto 450's? or something else? I'm putting them on the stock 16 inch rims. I would just leave the stock tires on the front, but all four tires need to be replaced... Thanks

I had kum HO's! I hated them..
I would suggest some Yokohama ES1000 since they replaces the AVS Intermediates (loved this tire!!) and seem to be a very good tire for the $$.. Recent magazine did an article on them..

I know plent who have them.. and know that many who have had them didnt have prior super tire knowledge...

I am used to Pirelli PZero tires.. I know what I am looking for.. I have never felt so much understeer from just tires.. the cheesey Kelly tires that were on my 1995 when I bought it used were better.

Nothing about the Kumhos was impressive.. I would much rather run Yokohamas which offer more for about the same cost.
