You definitely don't want slicks... maybe DOT race compound tires, but not slicks. You don't have the suspension and bushings (nor the fender width) to handle that.

There is a lot to learn with things as they are, so the money is better spent just making circles out there and learning. Instructors can relay a lot of information, but ultimately, its you acquiring feel that will make you quicker.
