Default Hooisers or Mich Pilot Sport Cup Zero's?

I was wondering if the Sport Cup Zeros would be close to the traction of the Hoosiers and give me more track events.(last Longer) as well as save me the need to change to aggressive neg camber.

I know the they cost more...but will they out-last the hoosiers?

Any thoughts

Pilot Sport will last longer but no way near as much grip as the Hoosier

I'm a total novice. I used ps2, zp and by my fifth track day they became as hard as a rock. Im using Hoosier r6 now. Don't know if that info helps.

If your looking for a good balance the Nittos make a great combo tire.

Great info to know...so they probably won't outlast the R6's by much..
