If you're willing to spend the kind of money that a Pilot Sport or S-03 costs, I strongly recommend the Pilot Sport 2. It is available in 245/40R18 size that is perfect for the 8.

Looks like two sets of rear tires. I can't afford the rims I want (at $500 a pop). So it will be Bridgestone Pole Position S-03 on all corners for everyday driving and Nitto 555 Drag Radials on the rear for fun. Both will be 18/245/35. The extra set will be easy to use because I have an extra set of stock rims (until I sell them, pm or post to buy). And yes, before anyone says that the 8 is not a drag car...I don't care I still have fun hauling some ass at the track. I mainly go b/c my brother goes with his real drag car. I just go pick on four and 6 cylinders and have fun.
Thanks for the input everyone.
