Or do I stick with 10k in the front and 5k in the rear with 100k in the centre?

stick with the lighter 10k and 5k because if you go to a thicker fluid you'll start loosing traction with the center being so stiff.
as far as tires, i use the GRP for the road...i've had one set for almost 2 years and i'll probably get another 2 years out of them. here's a couple of links to the tires:

i use the blue compound. those were the old losi rally tires that were discontinued. When i order from them, it never takes more than 4 days to the United States from Italy and their customer service is awsome. they're great people there.
these tires are good for atleast 105mph and they do not balloon at all. they're also high bite and they are sticky. they work year around for me.
here's a few pics of the GRP's on my high speed buggy:
As far as off-road tires, i use these guys from ebay alot:

the crimefighter and caliber (parada) style tires work well on most tracks that i race on and they're a high wear compound. if you want a great bash tire, try the big blocks. i still have a set from last summer that i still use almost daily. For the price, it's hard to beat.

hope that helps.

the mohawk tires are great for short grass and soft dirt.
