Default GSR Hammerhead Rubber Choice

Hi guys,

I just picked up a set of GSR Hammerheads for my eg6.
Tires are my weakness in terms of autoknowledge, and with the spring coming quickly I have one question:

What tires are you running/or have run on GSR Hammerheads?
Best Choice?

I am looking for :

1. a street tire
2. can be tracked on weekends
3. high wear is not an issue
4. will never see snow

All the input is greatly appreciated

The best matching tire size for 15" wheels on your '92-95 Civic Hatchback is 195/50-15.

Best performance tire? Goodyear F1 GS-D3. It's $88/tire in that size. This tire came in first in the comparison test of eleven top-of-the-line tires in the December issue of Car and Driver. Great traction on dry pavement, great traction on wet pavement, lasts a long time, and is less expensive than some other top tires.

Another choice would be the super-sticky but fast-wearing Falken Azenis RT-615, but it won't be available in 195/50-15 until this fall.
