I'm currently using Yokohama Advan AD08R but it's an old compound and I'd like a tire which can give me a bit more grip on track. The problem I've had with finding a replacement is that the AD08R is one of those great at nothing, but good at everything tires. Good grip, good steering feel, handles heat cycles well, wears well, usable down to the wear markers, decently low noise levels, usable in the wet and hydroplanes straight.

Know any other tires that fit that description? I don't need it to set hero laps, just need it to survive the occasional trackday without turning into a brick after some heat. I was considering the Dunlop Direzza Z3 but they don't have the sizes I need in my country.

Hankook RS4 is popular here but having driven RS2 in the past, they were super noisy and had sharp grip drop-off after 50%. Is the RS4 better in that respect?

Any suggestions will be welcome.
RT660 maybe? Cheaper then the ECF, better in the wet and comes in better sizes then the RS4 for the E92.

Will probably wear a bit quicker but the cheaper cost can help offset that..
