Tires: Turanza LS-V or Pilot Sport A/S

I have absolutely hated my potenzas since I bought my 2K3 Maxima almost two years ago and can't wait to get rid of them for this coming winter. I've always heard great things about the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires as replacements. However, Tire Rack shows good reviews for the Turanza LS-V tires and these are less expensive than the Michelins (they also carry a better warranty). I'm not sure if I want to give Bridgestone another try. Does anybody have experience with either tire that could give a good recommendation. I would hate to pay more $$ for the Michelins if they are only marginally better.

I drove on Turanza LS-Hs for 10 years on my previous 2 cars. The absolute best touring tire out there and I got an average of 65,000 miles out of each set. I will definitely go with LS-V's when my Potenzas are shot.
