FWIW, I am putting my 2nd set of Bridgestone RE-01's on mine, which is mostly street driven, but also sees several track weekends during the year. These are the best street tires I've ever had.

I put 215/45/17 Kuhmo ECSTA ASX tires on our 2002 MCS and a set of BSA wheels and they've been great. Quiet, rain/snow no problem, stick well. Got them from the Tire Rack. They've been on a full year now and the car is a daily driver.
