Does anyone track on the style 666m competition wheels?

Do any of you with the 20" comp package track on the style 666m wheels? What tires do you run? It seems like the choices are extremely limited. If you run a smaller wheel for the track, do you switch to competition wheels for daily or street use or would that require another alignment each time? I love the comp wheels but the tire options are so limiting.

Generally people rarely track in 20s lol the difference is noticeable for turns and accelerations. Better performance and more tire choices on 18/19s.

BMW performance center used the 19 437s on the M3 and M4 comps and not 666s...they mentioned better dampening and car is more responsive (plus cheaper rims and tires to replace than 666s I imagine)...666s are HEAVY. You certainly could get away with a track day on 666s no problem. But if its something you are planning on doing 2-3 times a year, plenty of great 18 and 19" options for track shoes.
