i don't want to do autoX with OEM pirelli P6. The grip is 0, the stifness of the sidewall is 0. When i'm on track, i use different tires because each tire have a utility. azenis are better on track, Falken ziex 512 are a good bang for the buck on the road and a 400-treadwear tire is good for 3 years(but where's the grip ???)
you have to chose the tire you need and not a tire that ''will provide adequate traction and that will last long''
my 0.02 cents

Who are you kidding! I agree with you at the track you need a good tire but even the best tire money can buy may shave a second or two off of you lap time in a focus over the pirelli's you have. It's still a focus no matter what shoes it's wearing.
