The Street Tire Classes will compete as separate classes and NOT be Paxed.
There will be trophies for each street tire class.

To check my understanding - Street Tire will still exist as a trophy class,
and be scored by PAX; but will not run combined in a single run group,
instead each with its respective normal class?

I don't quite see how that evens the run groups, as it gives you fewer and
larger groups to balance with.  Nor do I get how it provides better
competition in the stock classes - your street tire cars had better not be
competitive!  ;)

I don't object to the move per se - there have always been pros and cons to
grouping vs splitting classes - but would like to understand the reasoning
better.
