Dulop direzza dz101 or star spec....
IMO more than a 245/275 setup is redundant. Don't buy cheap tires, stick with Dunlop/BFG.. Best tires around for purpose street cars. I've heard a lot of mixed things about nitto tires so I stay away from them. Ive used nexen n3000, they are awesome for the money, wear pretty decent but get noisy after a couple thousand miles. I don't even bother with hankook, falken, general, or continental tires, all sets I've owned wear retarded and chunk stupidly. Continental and hankook have feathering issues and throw wire strips on hard driving.
Just my personal experience with tires
I align twice a year and run various camber settings front and rear but ALWAYS Run 0 toe.

NT05s are good when new after a few heat cycles and a couple thousand miles they become hard and dont perform well.
you know what the best tire out of your list is, so why even ask? RS3s are your choice so now instead of asking the same question over and over again go and buy some RS3s.

OP, please tell me that somehow I'm mistaken and you aren't asking for advice on tires for street racing in a stock Z?
