I'm getting close to ordering a set of dedicated autoX/track tires. I plan on doing ~5-6 autoX and 2 track days a year. I'd like the tires to last a year. I'm not going to be competing in either. This is just for fun.
So with those parameters, if you could only have one set of tires which would you choose?
I've been looking at the RS-4, Direzza III and RE-71R.
RS-4 are great for the track but take too long to warm up for AutoX.
Direzza III are better for AutoX (maybe .5 sec off the RE-71) and last longer than the RE-71s on track.
RE-71R is the hot ticket for AutoX, but may not last on the track.
My heart was really set on the RE-71s, but I'm thinking that the Direzza is probably the smart choice.
TIA
