I would not run them as my street tire so I don't really care how long they last.
Best Grip with good predictability.
With the hoosiers I have to get a realignment or they wear out so fast on the corners..
.I'm looking for track tire on seperate rims that I can put on for track day and still be able to drive to track...
???any suggestions

I've heard good things about a new Michelin. I have used Toyo R888's, and they are great. I also have Hooser slicks on my track wheels, but I don't recommend them unless you REALLY know how to drive with them. I spun out A LOT on them at first!!

I have run hoosiers before with no problem...but they last about a couple of weekends then they are done. I cord them quickly on the outside unless I adjusted camber before and after track days...thats a pain so I was looking for a good track tire that I would not have to do that with for every track day...

On my C5Z with stock alignment specs I have used the Nitto 555rII's with good success. This was driving to and from the track, 4k miles, 6 Track Days (24 Run Sessions - 25 min on average).
