I wanna try a set of slicks on the track mini before I invest in new ones, looking for used 205 or 225 in 15"

some with a few thousands left preferred, I dont wanna waste money mounting some that are too wore out

In case you didn't know, you can buy spec Miata take offs on Ebay most of the time. I've purchased from this guy multiple times.

You are going to struggle to get SM7s up to temp at an autocross. Maybe mid-summer with a codriver the last run might be decent. Higher heat cycle counts will only make this worse.
