Default Street legal track tires?

Hi, I'm lucky enough to live near a track so I'm wondering what would be a good track tire that I could use there & then to drive home on (6 miles). Then I'd switch back to my reg setup, Work Meister SR2 w/Yoko Advan Neova. Saw some interesting Kumho tires somewhere... Suggestions? I want to use my stock AP1 wheels so optimum tire size would be appreciated also. Stock suspension.

Toyo RA1: 245/45/16R 205/55/16F, or 225/50/16F- the 225F will make your car tend to oversteer, but nothing unmanagable. The extra grip is worth it IMO. The 225's will work really well with a stiffer front sway bar.

Kumho V710's are another choice, although the V710 sizing isn't optimum for the S2000 16" OEM wheels. You have to go with 265/45/16R and 225/50/16F.
