Your shock oil is fine don't spend money on what you don't need and your chassis should already be set up for drifting that's how it comes from the factory and I like the 26mm tires personally I had a pair of the LP's Ran through them in about a month and a half where the regular 26mm tires last double the time 3 months so that ain't bad

1) Which is better: the usual wheel for 26 mm or LP series HPI (29mm, 32mm, 35mm)? I really like the LP's. very smooth and look grreat. So far they have lasted a while also. If you went with the 26mm, you could use ABS if you wanted
2) What setup for drift? start with 0° toe in front, - 1° camber all around. Also get the ride height up on the sprint. I've noticed they ride low from the factory and eventually start scraping the ground
3) Which shock oil do you use in the front/rear? Use 30-35wt oil all around or 400-500cps
