Another pointless tire selection thread/poll

After exhausting search I've decided on the following two tires:
1) Bridgestone Potenza G009
or
2) Yokohama AVID V4S

I am looking for some input about the sidewall stiffness, wet/dry traction etc.

If any of you guys have or had a set of these, let me know which ones I should go with.

p.s. I'm leaning more towards the Bridgestones for now.

You posted this to the wrong forum.

The Yokohama Avid V4S are #1 rated on tirerack. I bought a set of H4S just over two weeks ago, so I'm biased. The V4S were not available in 215/60/15s or I might have opted for them.

Go to tirerack and read the customer reviews and survey results for both tires.

Sometimes it almost comes down to a coin toss. The BF Goodrich Traction TA (H-rated) were #1 rated on tirerack for much of the year but have slipped back for whatever reason.

I was undecided between the two, but got the H4S at a blowout price because of their odd size.

Take into consideration the kind of driver you are, the type of driving you do and the climate in NY.

thanks a lot Bobo, I did read the reviews but I was just hoping someone has either one of those tires on a maxima. And I just realized that I did post it in the wrong forum, if mods want to move it, please do. I appologize.
