Regardless, we have people on the board who track with stock sport wheels and OEM tires, and they do just dandy.
Ive never been seriously into tracking and Ive had my BMW for 15 years. I simply paid the money and drove around the track a few times with friends.

My BMW did fine with the stock 245 width tires and when it gets into a slide I feel 1000% comfortable knowing when it will drift and when its going to regain traction.

For some reason in the 370 I don't have that comfortable feeling but I know its due to 15 yrs vs. 1.5 yrs behind the wheel

Im at a point where I need a new hobby and tracking the 370z is going to be it for me.

Thanks for your input, I will stick with stock tire sizes and go from there if I stay interested in the sport long enough.
