Default Which Tire?

I am looking for a tire for my 2000 Trans Am, it has the stock 16" wheels on it. I'm looking for a tire that I could use for everyday driving as well as autocross and possibly even track days. I also don't want them to be too expensive. I was looking at the BF Goodrich KDW tires but it seems like they are discontinued and sold out everywhere. Also it seems like a lot of the tires I was looking at such as the Kuhmo Ecsta MX aren't offered in my size (245/50/16). Anyone have any advice?

What about Kumho Ecsta SPT or Bridgestone Potenza RE960 AS Pole Position?

get some nitto DRs they lasted me about 8 months to a year
and they are fun
I also had some yokohama avs db2, they were nice
not quite as much as KDW but a better tire than the KDWS

the firestone firehawk wide oval and bridgestone Potenza RE750 probably be good options as well
