So..just sayin, it'd be pointless to wrap my stock wheels with a similar extreme street tire to those on my 17x9s DD setup (and at the same time, they would be an even skinnier 7" stock wheel and skinnier 215-225 street tires than my DD setup...basically, it'd be worse than my DD setup), might as well just use my DD setup for the track.

Oh okay, I hear you on that. Funny thing is, my setup is the exact opposite. I have 215/45 Michelin PSS mounted on the stock wheels for daily driving and then I have separate 17x9 wheels with 245/40 ZIIs for AutoX and track. I know the stock wheels aren't "sexy" around town, but from a practicality standpoint it works for me.
Anyway, good luck with your decision. R-compounds are certainly a lot of fun!
