falken 615's just came out and there prices are not bad.
But they seem to be more of a handling tire SCCA. I could be wrong I'm just reading the reviews.

I'm getting the G-Force T/A DR's for $150 each.

OK I finnaly made my decesion and got the EVO 5 for the street instead. For the track I got the RPM 2.. OK I'm finnaly happy with my choice it took me awhile because there were so many choices and very hard to find exactly what I wanted.
I finnaly got the real numbers I was mistaken of the weight'...

EVO 6 weight 20.6lbs 17"
EVO 5 weight 18.3lbs 17"
RPF1 weight 13.7lbs 16"

EVO 5


RPF1
