Might as well throw my video in too.
Like I mentioned above, used Pirelli slicks I got on the web. Unknown heat cycles. Decent tread though. 65 on the durometer, so a little hard. Undersized fit. Totally stretched on the 12' rim despite being a 305. One inch smaller than comparable hoosier rear and a half inch smaller than comparable hoosier front. Would love to figure out what the proper fitment is and find a set of those. Used of course
Temp 88
Car is stock. Except for wing, LSD, exhaust, tune, lithium battery, and solid mount susp pieces, and shifter, and trailer hitch
Easily repeatable 218's all weekend along. Got a 217.8 at one point on my display, still looking for that one in the data.

I'm moving to slicks and will (hopefully) have some Pirelli scrubs later in the year. Won my first set this weekend. They are $2600 new, would certainly inflate the tire budget. My first couple of hopeful scrub sets are spoken for. Might have some Hoosier Scrubs soon too!

What sizes do you run? Mine are really too small for 12 and 9 inch wheels.

I'd love to come have beers with you and Eric, but I'm going to Barber this weekend with Chin.

PBOC next month, sign up.
I run 245 320 which are 240mm front and 300mm rear for Pirellis, but as I have a bunch of sets on Cup car sizes, that's what I will most likely run. These are narrower than the Pirellis, but are good to go.
The cup sizes should be perfect for your car.
PS: No one 'tucks' behind me, bro ... no homo crap around here, I'll let you FOLLOW if you choose to.
lol
