Default Any Pirelli recommendations for road or track?

I'm entered in a drawing for a free set of Pirelli tires (with fairly good odds of winning). The only vehicle I need tires on right now, however, is my son's '96 Camry, which are about $70/tire. I have lots of tread life on my S2k's road (Dunlop Star Specs) and track (Toyo R888s) tires, as well as my Pilot (Goodyear Triple Treads) and CRV's (whatever came OEM). Are any Pirelli tires (that come in AP2 OEM sizes) good enough that I should hold onto them until they're needed for the S2k? Pilot? CRV? Or should I just use the freebee for a low price set for the Camry? Any thoughts on the Pirelli tires are appreciated.

There really isn't anything for the S2K that I would recommend. The Pilot could use a Scorpion STR at 126.00 each and they are a good handling tire.

Thanks, Jim. Any insight into their new R-comp tire being released next year? I heard about it at a Hooked On Driving track day at Thunderhill yesterday.
