tire suggestions
hi guys,
im coming up on 20k miles on my base 718 cayman and im looking into replacing all 4 of the oem/factory tires which for me were good year eagle f1s (to be honest im kind of surprised they lasted this long considering i did a light track day with them and the mileage).
any suggestions for an equivalent tire (same performance rating etc or better) that i can look into for a good/affordable price?
these tires would be for street use only.
im also looking to grab a spare set of track only tires for an upcoming track day - any suggestions? heard the nitto nt01s are a good bang for your buck option.
as usual thanks in advance for your comments!

tirerack.com is your best resource for research, reviews, and professional tests.
The top street performance tire is the Michelin Pilot 4S but there are other choices - up to you to balance cost with performance / longevity / wet vs. dry.
The current track favorite is the Bridgestone RE71R, but the are other options (compromises grip vs. tire life, cost).
Note that tirerack does not carry Nitto.
