Default Best drag tires for Konig Helium rims

Hi guys I have a 2000 Integra LS and I want new lightweight rims and tires for a good price. I think the Konig Helium rims are REALLY nice looking and light (11 lbs) for the price (under 400 for 4 includin shippin). So I also want Nitto 555r tires which I heard are the best for drag. I will also get 2 drag slicks later on for the strip but now I am lookin for 4 tires for these rims (the 15x6.5) I am not really familiar with rims and tires so please help me wit the best performin sticky tire for the street for these rims. Thanks!

Falken Azenis RT-615, 205/50-15. $72 each at Vulcan Tire. Or click here to find your nearest Falken dealer, who can order them for you.

In case you're interested, here is an article in which they tested the RT-615 against other tires on an autocross course.

Only buy the 555r's if you are looking for a dual-use street/strip tire. If you will be getting a set of dedicated wheels/tires for drag racing, then check the drag racing forum; there are much better choices than a 555r.
