Default Tire Help..... Please

Guys

I currently have runflats on my 05 Z51. They are not wanting to hook up at the track and I dont really care for them on the street. My question is this:

Will Michelins PS2's help my Track Times at all over the Stock Runflats? How 1/10's could I expect from changing tires to the Michelins PS2's? Will I tend to hook up better on these tires over run flats?

What other tires besides the PS2's would be good for both the track and street? What would give me the most grip without going to a racing slick tire?

Any advice!

Thanks

PS2 is the way to go. Call Tire Rack and ask them. They do tire test six months out of the year. They will also tell you what the best tire made as a run-flat will be.
You can get the phone number out of any car magazine.
