Welcome, Roger. Any low profile performance tire is going to serve you well. Choose your tires based on how they'll look on the car, ie how does it fill the wheel well, and how they'll look comparing front to rear. More than likely, you'll end up with a 50 series or smaller sidewall. Also, tire width is important as well. From there, you have many other variables to make the car handle and provide a smooth ride on the street. You don't have to sacrifice comfort and tolerate a bone jarring ride in order to have a car that handles.
