Craig any updates on the AD08rs? I'm going back to Yoko the update on the S-04's is that I just plain am not happy with them. RSR Ryan had my car for a few days of seat time recently and agreed. Maybe I just got a bad set but the fronts at any pressure do not track well and have a squishyness to them that's quite noticeable.

Just put S04s on my RS this week. Took it out for a 150 mile spin today and like them. I'm coming from Michelin Pilot Super Sports so I thought I might be disappointed but I like them. They were half price at TireRack so figured I would give them a shot.

You will not be disappointed. I would say that this tire is too good to be used on the street. It is the perfect DE tire that allows you drive in the rain without getting panic attacks like I get with NT01s in public traffic ...
