If you're putting the car on track, then it makes sense. Driving around on the street does not. So I am guessing you're building a track car? You do have the fastest color. For track though, I would have gone for some Hoosier R6's. the Hankook R*S3's are a fantastic street tire. But R-Compounds are teh sex for racing.
I autocross on the cheaper Kumho V710's. Very similar to the Hoosier A6, but quite a bit cheaper. Anyway, enjoy and keep up with the mods.

Ahh. Right. I didn't read the part about prepping for ST. Then he made best tire choice, IMO.
