front tires pretty much dictate how much control you will have on your car once you start drifting, if they grip enough to allow. running a crappy tire will mean that you can understeer (when you're car moves at a more shallow angle than that of which your wheels are pointed)

you always want more grip upfront than in rear, or at the least balanced grip. I'm looking into advan ad08 for the front, or federal 595-RSR, and then i just run cheap tires in the rear
Okay, lol I happened to stumble on a free pair of toyo proxxes 4 in 215/40/17 so I'll stick those on the front when I get my wheels. And as for rears I'll try those sunny things you mentioned haha.
