I have recently bought an old 914 race car with a six in it. The car currently has some really! old goodyear slicks on it, they are 23x9.0x15 fronts, and 23x10.50x15 rears, they are on multi piece bbs wheels. Im working on gettting the car "race ready" and was wondering what are some good options for tires, and who to buy them from, This will be my first full slick car. Any advice would be great.

Well i think im leaning toward changing wheels so i can run a good modern street tire, that way i can drive it on the street and run at the track. Now i just gotta find some cool looking wheels. Any suggestions
