Default Yokohama S.Drives?

A little background, I bought my car used at 14k miles, with BRAND new Yokohama S.Drives. The car is now at 33k miles, the tires have had one flip flop on the rears because of camber wear, and I probably have another 3-4k miles worth of tread left. And lastly, I have a stock suspension and don't intend to ever change.
Oh, I also drive like an ĄSSHOLE, I'll make really aggressive turns, and I've made 20-30 full boar VDC off 1st gear limiter burn outs (hell, just left 3 nice 11's at my uncle's company parking lot, lol)
At the same time, I DD my car and kinda care about the mileage I get (burnouts are stress relievers, lol)


When time comes, and I need new rears, I was originally going to get Michelin Pilot Sport A/S+'s because they have a great mileage warranty (22,500 miles), which to me means burn out central, at the same time, my Yokohamas have lasted about the same... And the A/S+'s are HEAVY tires...


So, where do Yokohama S.Drives rate in terms of road noise (no idea how bad OEM tires are), grip, average mileage, and price vs stock RE050's, A/S+'s, the forum favorite Bridgestone RE-11's, the Michelin PSS's, and/or any other recommend tire?


Thanks in advance!
Andrew
