I run those same wheels on my 2012 GT on the track. I'd been running Micky Thompson Street Comps in 275 / 40 / r18, but the rears are shot after this year's University of VARA.

I might start a thread here looking for recommendations in that tire size. I've got Hankook Ventus Evo's that I run on Track Pack wheels on the street...

Welcome to TMO. Depending on how much you want to spend I'd look at Nitto NT01's or Hankook RS-3's.

I shopped around and got Falken RT615K 's 295 rear, 255 front. Only ran one of the SCCA Track night to cycles them in. Lot of BMW guys like these. Just make sure the "K" is what anybody has on sale. The straight 615 looks identical but the compound is more for AX and they will get greasy after about 5-6 laps. The K's stay consistant.
