I'm a dabbler. I do about 6 autocrosses a season, one track day, one or two drags, and drive daily on mountain roads.
Tires win. It takes more than shaving a couple of pounds to make up for the performance difference in the tires. Given that you auto-x tires are the #1 mod you should invest in and yield the biggest result.
