If you are going to run 235/40 and 315/30 tires, I'd highly recommend the Nitto NT01s. They are much much better than the R888s which are lousy in comparison, especially if you are going to track your car. The 888s cycle out very quickly and their grip goes down the tubes even with plenty of rubber left on them. They are also super loud and you can't rotate the wheels on the car as they are directional. NT01 are good all the way to the cords in comparison and I generally get almost 600 miles on them before cording. They make for a decent street tire actually. Can't beat that for $1000 per set...

Finally (after 2 years) got my H&Rs installed and the car aligned. Still need some upper control arms to get the rear camber 100% but it's pretty close. Much improved look just taking 1" out of the wheel wells...
