Also lift kit, 14” rims and nankang AT tires so I can get to more remote job sites.
You can now get the K 03 in the OEM size for the 20” wheel. I have them and love them but it’s a lot of tire if you’re not off roading.
You may also look at Nankang AR1, 100tw semi slicks, if it’s only for track and dry days.
I had great experience, my car weighs 3k lbs, and the set lasted me for 16-17 track days, and it was a used set.
The grip in these tires is insane and improved braking drastically.
Ultra-High Performance All-Season (best summer grip for A/S)

Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus
BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S Plus
Nankang FT-9 tires have been awesome for me. I basically rally my little van out in the woods so I can attest to their durability.
They also handle pretty well on road.
And they are LT rated!
I just replaced all 5 on my Forester, BF Goodrich All Terrains, for AU $1250, so about US $840 at Costco.
K02s aren't the best on wet/slushy pavement in my opinion. I've had the rear step out on me twice cornering, spin in place at a stop a few times and pretty much guaranteed to get a bit loose on standing water with speed.
Nannkang NS20 is the cheapest tire that's good enough you won't think about it
I have k02 on mine and i dont like them. They look great and in mud and dirt they are great but a little water ore snow and ice and they break free if i goose it just a hair.
I have the BFGoodrich ones and hate them. Burned through half the tread thickness in a couple hot summer months. But even with still plenty of tread, the mf's slip when it's damp out... 0/10
