Default New tires for my 991 RS, Michelin, Pirelli or Dunlop

I have used two sets of Michelin Cup2 tires on my 991 RS and will go for my third set now. What is your recommendations, keep up with Michelin Cup2, or go for Pirelli Trofeo R or Dunlops?

My car is doing 80% track and 20% street so track preformance is the most inportant, wear is secondary

Had the Dunlops on my GT4 and they gripped extremely well but they wore fast of course. Buddy of mine is running Trofeos on his 991 GT3 and loves them. I'd probably stick with the MPSC2 but curious to see other opinions.

If I were you I'd consider Pirelli Trofeo R since you have had MPSC2 twice. You then can make a fair assessment on what you would get next.

MPSC2 for me is the only tire you can use up and drive home safely.
That's also worth considering if drive to and from the track (in the rain, as I will to Sebring tomorrow).
