When I first got my T/A they had Eagle F1 on them. They were good tires. I got a new set @ 38,000 miles and got BFG KDW which were around 200 a tire. They were pretty good tires as well but only lasted 20,000 miles. I then purchased the Sumitomo HTZ2 and they are the best tire for the price. I maybe go to the track 2 times a year. Put them on my car around 50,000 miles and when I sold my WS6 wheels they still had about 40% of tread on them and the car had about 88,000 miles on it. So almost 40,000 miles on them and about 40% tread on them. I suggest get a decent tire for the track on your stock rims and run them at the track! You could probably get a full set of Sumitomo and a set of drag radials for you stock wheels for under 1000.00 dollars.
With the 275 40 18's on the vette wheels you will more then likely need to bang in the inner fender or run a spacer. I had to bang mine in a little but I have some buddies who had to bang the hell out of the inner fenders.
