Default Tires to run on the street

I don't hook first, second and a good part of 3rd on the street on shitty all-seasons.

I'm not the greatest driver in the world granted, but I'm looking to step it up tire-wise.

Local guys are recommending Falken rt-615's as a full street tire, whereas I'd prefer to run a full DOT legal slick.

Tires will be used at the track, and rolling around on Friday/Sat night streetraces only.

Suggestions?

does it NEEDS to be all -season or not, and what are the tire sizes you are looking for.

I am running a cheap set of Fuzion HRI's by Dunlap. 45 bux a tire lol

195/60/14 They hook damn good for me on the street. Great for the money IMO

I am actually looking for 195/60/14 tires too but on a daily drive.
all i can see is expensive or cheap summer tires that don`t last too long or long lasting all season that i don`t think will do too good on cornering
