Default Best tire and tire size for stock c5 rims???

Looking to get to the track a few times this year and currently ride on Pirellis on CCW wheels (for my daily driving). I have my stock rims that I want to put track tires on but not sure where to start.. suggestions??

I also need to drive about 90 miles one way to get to the track. Thanks guys

Lots of guys recommend Toyo RA1s for a drive-to tire. I've never run them.

You may laugh, but I got alot out of my Kumho MXs. For $880 a set and a street tire, with -1.5*/-1.0* camber they handled very well. I have a few weekends a year that are 300miles to the track so needed a tire I could drive there. these were good 'cause they were cheap.

Just some thoughts.
