*EDIT* Quick questions - I am upgrading from 208's, mainly for street use with 1 or 2 trackdays. How much more durable is the Pilot Road?

For any Trackday use, I really wouldn't suggest the Pilot Road.
Even though you could use them at a trackday and they would be good to a point ...
You could be pushing your luck if you weren't careful and they will let go quicker w/o as much warning as the PP or PP 2CT give before letting go.

Main thing I would suggest, if your condering going the Pilot Road route, is go with a Pilot Power Front (or 2CT) for the additional grip/feel/feedback.
The Pilot Road rear is pretty decent on grip, considering it's a "sport touring" tire.

Overall though, your should get good mixed use(Track/Street) mileage out of the Pilot Power, as long as you have your suspension dialed in pretty good.

For the Pilot Road, I typically only suggest them if your doing a TON of commuting or a cross country trip with a lot of time on the HWY. They handle ok in the twisties, but it is a sport touring tire - so you have to take that into account.

Hope that helps
