IMO, none of them are good options for pure street driving, they need some heat to work, will be noisy and stiff. The pilot super sports are probably your best bet for a good sticky pure street tire.

Forget the Azenis, they're old tech and not as good as the other options in any aspect.

RE71R will be way faster for autox or a few laps of track use, but the AD08R's will last WAY longer. They'll both be noisy and and stiff (not as comfortable).

I've had Dunlop ZII's, Hankook RS3 v2's, and now AD08R's on my car. The ZII's and AD08R's had the best feel, the RS3's definitely had a bit more grip than the ZII's and are about the same as the AD08R's. The AD08R's and ZII's last WAY longer than the RS3's, and RE71R's way WAY faster than RS3's do. They claim to be a 200tw, but in reality they're more like 80-100.
