Default Tire Suggestions?

I am going to be needing new tires soon in about 2000 miles, right now I have the Yokohama AVS Intermediates 235/40/17, and since they do not make these tires anymore which is a shame I am unsure on what I should get. I am looking for an excellent tire of 235/40/17 and I would like good wet traction, it would also be nice if I wouldnt have to buy a new set of tires each season after some aggressive driving. So it sounds like I am looking for the perfect tire but isn't everyone. I was thinking about the Bridgestone Pole Position S03's but they are kind of pricey, unless someone has some connections What do you all think I should do.

Default Yoko ES100s are the new hot thing out there.

Highly recommended, although there are some people who complain that they're loud. I've got them in 225/40/18 and like them so far. Dont' have too many miles on them yet though.

Default Bridgestone RE750

Had the RE730 on my Porsche 993; great tire on the street and track, wet or dry. The RE750 is the latest replacement for it, and they just got installed on the Porsche. Feel great as well!
