Thinking of buying an extra set OEM RS4 19" and some Pirelli Pzero Corsa
The OEM wheels are fairly light and gives a solid feel.
How doe's that sound?

Bad! OEM wheels are light? Since when? Get yourself a forged light wheel, maybe even an 18" wheel...
SSR Comps for the track are great. My 17 x 8.5 weigh only 15.5 lbs, now that's light.
For tires for the track I'd get some Toyo RA1s, shaved or unshaved depending on how you use them. They are not as sticky as Hoosiers but they will last a hell of a lot longer too. Unshaved they stick in water like no street tire unless there is a lot of standing water.

Well I have a set of ultrallegera 18" w 225/40 18..
left from my S4 but I'm afraid that the 225:s Toyo R888 won't cope with the RS4?
So the plan was the get some bigger and wider tires.
And I know that OEM wheels normally are heavy but the RS4's are the lightest OEM wheels out there even if you count OEM 18" and 17".
