Find a set of 2 used 16" v-6 rims and put a set of Mickey Thompson ET Street radials on them and get the Nitto 555's for your street driving. I love my Mickey's. More expensive than Nitto's but definately worth the cost at the track.

I didnt have any majorwet traction issues with my 315 555r's. Even with 3.73's in the rear they gripped the wet road better than my Michelin Pilot Sports. Get the DR's!

I caught some rain on my way home from my last night out at the track and I had to park it and have my wife pick me up. My d/r's suck in the rain. I won't have any other kind of street tire other than Goodyear Gatorbacks. Just my opinion.
