Getting into something faster you are going to have to start to deal with more tire wear and peakiness. The RT660's are not overly expensive so they may be worth a try. I had mixed feelings about them on track. They were pretty good up to around 80F on an overcast day. Once the sun got on the track, or temps went up they became like the other super 200's, good for 2-3 laps then needed cooled down. I was hoping they would be a bit more of a bridge in performance and behavior between the RS4/Z3 and the A052/RE71R. I also only got about 4 days of 6 20min sessions out of them. All the autoX guys I know really liked them.

Here is a good video on quite a few of the commonly available 200TW tires.
