Yokohama or Potenzas?

I can't decide which tires to get for my new wheels I am about to purchase here. Both sets are rated by TireRack.Com very closely.

I am trying to decide between the Bridgestone Potenza RE730 Gen. 2 and the Yokohama AVS ES100. The tire sizes are 235/40-18.

Like I said, the ratings are very very similar, and the prices are not too much different either... the Potenza is only $26 more for each tire.

Since they are so similar in performance and ratings I am thinking about going with the Yokohamas because of the price difference. I searched for Yokohama on the forum but only found some threads about people comparing them to other tires. Does anybody actually have the Yokohama I am talking about here (the AVS ES100) and if so how do you like it?

The Yokahama Looks like a copy of the old Potenza S-O2 and their own AVS sport.

I'm partial to Bridgestone. Yokahamas have a reputation as being loud tires.
