Yokohama v/s Nitto

Looking for a tire in 275/35/18 to go on my 18 x 9.5 Polished Z06 rims.

I've narrowed it down to these two: Yokohama ES 100 or the Nitto 555 (not the drag radials the regular ones)

I like the Nitto having a slightly higher Treadwear. This will be a daily driver in dry/rain. I also would like good traction when launching.

Thoughts, comments??

Thanks

Out of those 2 i think the Yokohama are a better tire. I was trying to decide between those two also. But i have heard that the nitto's wear out faster and are a noiser tire. I have had the yoko's on my car for about 5,000 miles and so far i like them a lot. They have good dry and wet traction. They are a very good price for the amount of quality in the tire. No complaints here.
