Best dual use tire?

[razorlab]

I wouldn't even consider the DWS for my use case. I feel like I've still got a lot to learn yet, but I'm getting faster every time. Is there a tire you'd recommend?

Since the ECF comes in wonky sizes for 19, take a look at Yokohama AD09’s.

I had good results with RE-71RS on stock wheels running a 285 in the back. They don't live long, though.. I never tracked them in the rain, but I did drive 150 miles in a torrential downpour to VIR and thy did fine on the highway. I'd guess they'd be ok'ish on a wet track.

Pro Tip: If you decide to get ECF, get them from trackdaytire.com. They have a Buy 3 get 1 free sale pretty frequently. Just sign up for their email list and wait for the next sale. There may be one this week/weekend for July 4th.

i also thought of ECFs but i have no interest in neither 295s nor 30 sidewall, so.. i think PS4S are fine? they're comfy for every day, great in the rain, and i use them at the track.. handle well enough where porsches and V8s can't keep up. i would say stick with these and get some camber plates

I have 285r and 265f AD09 which are similar in performance to ECF and so far they’re a good street and track tire if you’re looking to run a high volume of laps but not set records. They heat up quickly and haven’t given me any problems in the rain.

If you’re doing a combination of lapping and roll racing, when I switch to E50 at 700 whp the AD09 dead hook from 40 mph when tires are hot, which was a nice surprise.

Great tires for $1200

Just bumping this because, like clockwork, trackdaytire is having a buy 3 get 1 free sale. use code "july4" and with the sizes you listed they take off almost $350. Like people said, they aren't the absolute stickiest tire out there but they work great on track, last long, and that deal they have regularly makes them basically the cheapest option.
