Well, you said that you go to the track on the weekends. By track, I think we're assuming a real track (i.e., road course) and not a drag strip. If you're taking to the car to a road course, you can always use wider rubber, regardless of how much power you're making. The wider tires are for more cornering traction, not just acceleration. Yes, there's a point where wider tires may actually be detrimental to your overall performance, because they just get too heavy, etc... but I don't think you've reached that point yet.

Wider, stickier tires can also cause unwanted drag in a straight line.

you are right Mx_77 when saying track I am refering to Road Course.

I am more interested on impprove cornering than go fast in a straight line

So I can keep the wheels and sway bar that I have or I have to go back to stock?
