It depends on what your gonna do at the "track". Drifting, time attack, SCCA. So whatever you can afford is pretty much what your gonna get.

Since most NA's are under powered, I would cheat your rear end with a 205/50/15 (Hankook makes some $50 shipped off ebay ones).

Especially if you're going to burn them off drifting.

The biggest gains on an NA is either through porting, or through the diff in my opinion, and this is a cheap way to help your acceleration.
