If money is no object, Advan A032r hands down perform so well, the harder you drive the stickier they get. I loved them when I had mine.

Have you tried other R-comp tires? About that Yokohama, from the review linked above:
The narrow tire and harder compound design predictably yielded the slowest course times. The Yokohama was simply outgunned in this test, but it’s not without its charms. We’d recommend this tire to any novice autocrosser as a great first R-compound tire. It doesn’t hurt that this was the least expensive tire we tested.
Of course, any R-comp tire still beats a good max-performance summer street tire in performance.
