Luke: Michelin pilot sport A/S vs Yokohama advan a10b

These are for my lexus GS350 (18 inch wheels)

The dealer is willing to replace my yokohama advan a10b with the pilot sport A/S.

Should I do the swap or keep the yokohamas... The yokohamas have 900 miles and are already getting loud but I am worried about greater stopping distances with the pilot sport A/S. What do you think?

haha wow. Do you think the new Pilot Primacy HP are better? I am worried about the reduced performance going from a summer tire (Yokohama advan a10b) to an all season tire (pilot sport A/S). Won't i see more sluggish handling and longer braking distances with the pilot sport A/S?
