Default Tires for '72 GTO convertible

I have made the following modifications to the suspension/steering of my car:
1. All new heavy duty steering linkage
2. Boxed rear control arms with polyurethane bushings
3. Installed 1" diameter rear sway bar
4. Installed 1 1/4" diameter front sway bar with polyurethane bushings
5. New ball joints
6. Polyurethane bushings for the front sway bar end links
7. Power steering fluid cooler and EGR power steering gear box
8. Polyurethane front control arm bushings
My question is: What are the best tires for this car to make use of the tight, responsive handling. My first choice would be a highway tread rather than all season. I will not be racing it, however if I have a good road ahead of me with no other cars in sight I might be tempted to "see what it will do".
Thanks,
Bill Evans
