any 'high perfomance' radials should have strong side walls. I personaly would go for hi grip radials because they are a lot more 'safe'. when/if you go beond them limit of a semi slick, you go from total grip to no grip e.I. no contol. street tyres have progression, you will feel how much grip you have so you can push to the limits and know where they are.
having said that, obviously semi slicks are going to have more grip than any street orented tyre. this is only my opinion. it also depends on what you are doing with your car and the suspension setup. regarding street tyres, yokahama c-drives offer lo cost and good grip but are very progressive, brigdestone g3 have better grip but have far less progression.
I hope this has helped you in some way. most street tres can be streched, if they are pushed too far (see just half stepping) they can pop off the bead of the rim, but 205's on a 9" rim should sit nicely and not wear too badly for everyday street driving. I really couldnt coment on streching semi's.
