What width wheels? Sure, if 7 + 8 (or 9), a 225/245 combo works. Problem is, there's not much out there available in a 245/45-16. Toyo RA1 is the go-to mid-range track tire. But honestly, where are you going to use it on the street. And then if you get caught out in the wet.......
Bridgestone RE11 is available in all of 205/55, 225/50, and 245/45. So those work across every scenario, and I didn't have any complaints using 235/305 X 19 on the 996 Turbo for a couple of track days. (Complaints about everything else on track with that car, but that's another discussion.)

Love the Hankook R on my weekend escapes. A year in and still sticky as all get out.
