I'd have a look at the 615 from Falken. A friend of mine has them on his STi and can easily get a season out of them and thats also with a track day and a hand full of auto-X.
If moneys no the problem I'd go two sets. Ra1s for fun and 615 for daily.
I've never been a fan of the A032R, I liked the old 008R from Yoko.
What about the R888 from Toyo are they hear yet?

i used to use the 215s but when i needed tires i went with kumho mx b/c i feel they are less heat sensitive. i thought the 215s were awesome when they were near ambient temps but i feel like they got greasy as the day wore one. the kumhos give up a bit in outright grip but i find them to be much less temperature dependent.. i didn't want to take a chance with the 615s being the same way.
the other tire i was thinking about are the bridgestone RE-01R. everyone seems to think they are an awesome ST* autoX tire.
