I'm very happy with my Bridgestone RE-070's and I'd reccomend them. They're fairly expensive and for your wheels, you'd be stuck with a 225/45/17 and a 255/40/17, and they're on the heavy side but they stick like glue, wear like iron and withstand any abuse you can throw at them. With the price of mounting and balancing factored in, with the extra life you'll get out of them, it may well be cheaper in the end than some of the cheaper choices. I've tried Kumho SPT's and Falken FK-451's before and the Bridgestones have far outlasted both of those tires with much higher wear ratings. They handled track use beautifully, barely showing any signs of stress, barely wearing, but still griping very well. I'd certainly think long and hard about getting them again for my car, but even though I bought them something like 3 years ago, they've still got some tread on them.
