Track-only Race Compound Tires recommendations & Q's. On stock wheels.

Can you recommend me some nice race compound track-only tires that would work the best on the stock wheels?

I assume the stock 7" wheel would work best with something like a 225, correct?

Also, a good question: Would a "Race/track-only" tire in 225 on a 7", out perform a "Street" tire in 245 on a 9" wheel (ie: like a DD setup of RPF1 9" wheels with PSS/D2/RS3/RE11 Street tires)?? Asking, because if the 225 Race tire is only just a tad better than a 245 Street tire, or if the 245 Street tire is almost as good or better than a 225 Race tire, then I would most likely not even bother having nor using an extra set of track-only tires on stock wheels (and will just slang them stock wheels). But, if them 225 race tires are much better and worth it for the track, then of course I will use them

Obviously, I will most likely just run them on nice sunny days at the track (for fun/hobby). Button Willow and Willow Springs.

That said, recommendations for track/only race tires/slicks/etc. that will fit and work nicely on the stock wheels very welcome
