In comparsion to a set of Bridgestone Adrenalin's, the Sportmaxx are a far better tyre. However you should seriously think about running at least factory width on the rear. 215's will make the car handle like a bag of shit.
+1 rep, I really like your comparison,
btw I've spent 10mins reading your signiture on choosing .

Just got some AD08's, Fronts 245, Rears 255... havent been out on track yet to test these out.

i think ku36 are shit for daily driving but definatelly better handling. For all rounder and slippery fun in the wet, i'd go for RE001 for steering response. and i hate Hankooks.
-
RE001 are still pretty bad in the wet considering their dry grip isn't that great either =/
They're still better then the ku36 in the wet however RE050 ftw for wet tyres they are so awsome in the wet.
btw KU36 is Kumho not Hankooks :P hehe
Tyre suggestions are about as good as reading tyre reviews, almost usless :P There's that many tyres around that at the end of the day comes down to what you can afford and what brand you want to go with. Everyone always has something bad/good to say about a certain tyre and every website will give you a diffrent review on each tyre lol

The overall width of the AD08's are wide, so the 245 tires is 248 and the 255 is 261... ive rolled the guards, cut the bumper tab but im going to need more of a roll and going to have to cut more of the rear bumper tab, these are really wide tires.

Ditto! I've got the same widths front and rear. The sidewalls are insanely stiff and they extremely well in the dry and are confidence inspiring in the wet. I don't really care about NVH so I love these tyres.
