What tires for function / drifting with this setup?

Hey guys. In september I picked up a stripped, rotisseried s13 shell and rebuilt it from nothing. The car is entirely intended for track use nearby where I live.

For the winter season I simply went with my friends old ka24e and will be doing a vq swap this coming spring. But as for right now.. kicking the car out in the dry takes a lot work compared to when I've driven s13's with sr's.

So for the sake of easing my left leg clutch kicking load, I've recently purchased some 15" wheels. 8.25" wide and a 0 offset. I planned on running stretched tires, although I'm not sure how much of a stretch I should run, what size tires I should run (Although I do plan on running something with a 50 sidewall) and what specific tires people have had good experiences with?

The car has a welded diff, rack bushings and other misc bushings, apexi coils, suspension arms, etc. Motor is stock aside from an exhaust

Any help is appreciated!

Did you check to see if the engine is healthy and what clutch is in it? I had a shitty KA that barely pushed out 140 psi, which is below FSM minimum for a DOHC KA.
