Sorry to burst your bubble but the OEM wheels are NOT "super light" nor strong enough to support racing speed side loads.

I recommend a lighter and stronger set of race wheels such as CCW's or Kodiaks.

For track rubber I would look at either Hoosier or Kuhmo and Goodyear.

Note that the DOT Kuhmo V710 are good
Hoosier is coming out with an new DOT A3SO5 and R3SO5, hopefully before April 30, 2005. Many were dissatisfied with the wear endurance and higher pressures needed to run the A3S04's & R3S04's but improvements have been made.

Goodyear has a nice selection of DOT tires and also has their full race R tires, G-19 Sports Car Specials available.
