mdrag - two areas for consideration - first is how hard do you push the car and how frequently? Those front tires have to deal with a high friction load when cornering tightly on this heavy a car. Another consideration will be the trade off between mileage and adhesion related to the softer "high performance" rubber compounds. High "road stick" comes with a high price!! :-)
