Tyres... 250 miles and worn out!

3 trackdays and my lovely Toyo's are finished. What shall I replace them with? Is there anything available at a similar price that'll grip as well but last a little longer? Do semi-slicks last longer on track.... Toyo 888's?

Incidentally, just replaced the tyres on my E39 and they cost me more than my entire 19.

Depends what your looking at spending really, we tend to get good grip (in the dry) with Hankooks at a £40 a tyre inc fitting its a real good deal.

Never had them round a track mind, but on the road in chipped 190bhp seat fr tds they grip pretty good. They do slide a little bit in the wet, but thats half the fun!
