For me W5 > XP10 > Pmu CR. I tried both CR and W5 on the BRZ, W5 has a lot better initial bite when hot and much much better responsiveness when stone cold. Can be noisy af tho! Enough to raise eyebrows in a paddock full of track cars...

Another option is CSG Spec C2, I just ran these at the front at Palmer this past Sunday. Great bite even cold, I ran them with Conti ECS street tires and with Hoosier A7s and honestly they were great at the track with either. Won my time trial class, COMSCC T60 (9 competitors including a 981 Cayman S) with a 1:48.16

They're also fine on the street, they work when cold, not too noisy and not too dusty either. Pretty remarkable!
