The A008's were good tires. They were replaced with the A032R's. If you liked the Yokos, stick with Yokos, expecially for track days. They aren't quite as fast as the others, but they hold up well and are consistent lap after lap.

Kumhos are very nice, but they will wear faster. They designed for more of a mix between autoxing and track events. I actually use Kumho's for autoxing and they do well, but I couldn't see getting more then 3 track events out of a set. The Yokohamas on the other hand I can see getting 5 or more track events on a set. Just all depends on how much you want to spend and how fast you can afford to go. If you need more info on some other tires let me know, I've driven or have friends who have run on just about any of the racing compound tires out there.
