Not sure about with the S. But I ran Nitto's on my 95 camaro. I drove them everyday on the street, and they bit good at the track. I have used the BFG drag radials, and they are mutch better at the track but were very unstable in the rain.

It all depends on what your prioritys are
nittos are 60% street 40% track
Bfg's are 40% street 60% track
or get some guts and use Mikey T's ET street that are 95% track and 5% street

now that i think of it i have a set of bfg's on my other set of ap1's, i took them off because i couldn't drive in the rain with them, i might just have to give em a try

Hope you've got some serious drivetrain work done......after all the horror stories of blown rear ends just with street tires, drag radials or slicks could chew the s2k's drivetrain up in no time.
