Tried an autocross with the stock Turanzas. They're awful. Everyone thinks you're trying to be drift king out there, but it's the tires (and to a lesser degree, the stock suspension). Fun, but not fast.

I'll keep the Turanzas as cold-season tires though. The one saving grace about these is they're all-seasons.

I ended up going this route. For anyone that's interested, Tire Rack has a sale going on right now, $82/ea.
