Big fan of the Yokohama AD08R here! Haven't run them on the M2 yet but have gone through several sets on a Cayman S. I found them to be a great balance of dry traction, wet traction, heat tolerance, and low road noise for that DD duty. These are some of the best tires I've driven to date since Dunlop stopped making the Star Spec ZI, and in the Cayman they'd go pretty long before getting greasy. I cannot compared to the RE-71R though from what I've heard they probably would out do the AD08R in the dry.

Long life was not a strong suit, though the Cayman was pretty hard on tires with weight on the rears and not nearly enough reasonable options for getting camber into the fronts.
