Default Dual purpose tires

With a stock S2000, what tires do you feel is best for tracking/daily driving with the s2000.

My back tires have one more track day...wich is wednesday.

When I replace the rears, do I have to match them to the front?

Thanks for the feedback in advance

For that many track events, they will be bald at some point regardless of which tire, and will be risky on the street (unless you have another car and only drive this in the dry). Get dedicated track tires.
