Default I'm changing from stock to new tires. Need recommendation.

I have 17 inch stock tires which are near expiration.

Since the front and rear tires have different sizes, it's been hard finding performance tires to fit my needs.

I've looked into Toyo T1r's and Falken rt615, but unfortunately they don't have tire sizes that match the different sizes (front and rear) on the 17 inch rims on a touring model.

I need something that can be used for both street and track. I do tracking maybe 2-3 times a year, which isn't much, but I am a fairly spirited driver.

What do you guys recommend for a stock replacement? I'm not buying rims by the way.

The problem is that the fronts are 225/50/17 and the rears are 235/50/17

Michelin Pilot Sports. Great tire, a little pricey. Buy them at Tire Rack or DTD.

1) Search!!! There are plenty of tire reviews on the forums
2) Most people, including me, run BFG KDW tires. They are an awesome street and track tire.
3) More research!!!
