Smile RE11 v. 555

Hi all,
I could really use some advice. I have a 2012 GT with brembos and I am looking for recommendations on a summer set up (already have a winter setup with conti DWS, which by the way are awesome). Simple choices here:

18 or 19 inch, (19 is OEM)
square or staggered setup (9 or 10" all around; or 9 F, 10R)
Bridgestone RE11 or Nitto555

Not to difficult huh? Some facts, this is my daily driver although I only drive 15 miles daily and most highway driving will to and from the track. I expect to do 5 or 6 track or autoX events this year.

I heard that the 555 are terrible in the rain but they much cheaper than the RE11, which I would get if they weren't so expensive (and might anyway if the 555 don't hold up.

Please help if you have an opinion! Greatly appreciated!
