Metzeler Roadtec Z6

I'm a rather conservative rider looking for some tires that are stickier than my BT020s for an upcoming trackday and some back roads riding this season.  The Z-6 is at the top of my list.  

Did you guys use the B-spec (stiffer wall) Z-6 or the normal one?  I'm about 175 lb soaking wet, so rider weight should be pretty low, but the Bandit 12 isn't exactly a lightweight.  

I'll try not to do any Iron Butt rides with them; looks like the middles go south in a hurry.

I've replaced stock tires with Z6 after I got a flat.  Major difference.  The bike just wants to lean into a corner.  The tires were definitely a confidence builder for me (<1 year experience).  I'd get them again if I had to.
