Spirited driving around town, trips like zdayz, and autox/road courses. I have a daily driver, so I don't put a lot of miles on my z, and I usually only drive it in dry weather now.

The reviews on tirerack kind of point me towards RE11's, but both seem pretty awesome.

I was researching the same tires and went with the Toyo R888 from Tiresdirect.net. Of course this is also due to me talking to a lot of the high-hp Supra, Porsche, GT-R crowd.

Isn't that an R-compound tire?

In short, Yes. But the RE11's and AD08's are as well.

^Thats what I was thinking. I'm gonna drive the car to my events/around for fun still, so I want a street compound. Anyone have experience with both? I know the RE11's are awesome, but I am considering trying out the AD08's.
