I have a set of AD07s for track / ax use.
They have Very STIFF sidewalls, great temperature tolerance quite good grip and wear surprisingly well so far.

They rate very low if you are concerned with a plush, quiet ride.
They rate very high for my intended purpose.
I talked to the Yoko dude @ Fontana last month. He told me that the AD08 is intended for similar applications, high performance, NOT plush ride.

cheers

I'm on my 4th or 5th set of AD07's on my DD 993. Best tires I've ever owned, love them.

My boss has them on his GT3 and loves them (mostly track miles). They are just out with a AD09 version. You might want to look into that, too. Be aware that they must be kept above a certain temperature (5C, or 0C, or the like). That might be a consideration depending on where you live.
