Can't Decide!

I might start tracking my car this year. So, I need sticky tires. Let me know what you think between these two tires. Thanks.

Neither. Stock tires are more than adequate for spirited street driving. Find a used set of cheap wheels/tires for your track days. Use the money you saved by buying used to pick up a set of track day rotors/pads, instead. In reality, you may not even have to go that far - HPDEs in a 160 HP, 3400 lb. car ususally entail sticking to your line while everybody else in the field overtakes you...not a lot of time is spent at the limits of grip - at least not enough to warrant a ~$1100 set of tires.
