    Why you need Nitto drags? Just get the Nitto street tires unless your really going to be serious about racing it. Im sure they are still expensive in 18s but not as bad as the drags.

    Go 18x8/10s for sure on your car.
    BTW, I have a nice set of 245/45/18 Michelin Pilot Sports FS for $200 (in classifieds), its a very good deal and can save you some money for the rears .

    I bought my 305-35R18 555DR's off Steeda.com for $250 a piece. Other places charged $330 per tire.
