Does anyone have experience with the Yokohama ADVAN S.4 tires in terms of noise, wear, ride, road holding in wet, etc for the Porsche 997? Is the best idea to just stick with Michelin?

i have never owned a set, I've settled on replacing the tires on a car with what came on it originally -- simplistic maybe but ultimately it always provides satisfaction. But I know lots of people who have had Yokos. No one has a word against them, they hold great on dry situations particularly at 9/10ths or more, but they are a bit dicey in the wet, and they do wear faster than some others (which admittedly hold a bit less, like Hankooks), is my impression.
