Hankook makes RS-3's (both V1 and V2) in NB sizes. I'm on my 2nd set and for mixed street / track driving they are awesome. If you've already tasted the crack (R comp's), go directly to Trofeo R's or MPSC2's.

First time as in this car or first time ever? If ever, stick with street tires.
18": Nitto's if they ever make our sizes again; R888 (if all else fails)
19": Street: Hankook RS3's hands down before MPSS. Great grip, last a long time; little sensitivity to heat cycles. R comp: Pilot Sport Cup2's. I'm in the middle of experimenting with these and they're pretty awesome. Seem like better grip than the stock cup 1's but better wear. Love the Trofeo R's but they wear very quickly.

^^^ Sniffing R6's = $1K per track day or occasionally if you over indulge $2k per day... beware...they are addictive.
RE-11's go on, and on, and on again...I'd say they are the Energizer of DD/Track Tires...

^^^ Absolutely not...the 315... width and diameter are within spec....now their 235/35/19 front's there can be an issue depending on your set-up. The R6 235's are closer to 250/255's in all actuality, and have rubbed on my end until making the proper adjustments.

I have MPSS in 325.30.19 on the rear of my .2 GT3. The A6 315 section width is 12.5" which is .5" less than the 325 MPSS. Should fit

Alan C. - So 325.30.19 will fit the rear of my car...how about fronts? Are you running 245s or stock 235.35.19? Looking to put Sport Cup 2's on for track. Thanks.

245 fronts will fit no problem on both the .1 and .2 non-RS cars (I know because I ran them on my .2 non-RS car).

I currently have 245.35.19 and 325.30.19 on my 10 GT3. Ran the same on my 11 GTS.

Glad to help. The GT3 goes into Quality Automotive on Monday.
