Yokoyama or Goodyear tire?

I have decided to buy the 17' AMG style III wheels and was looking into tires. Which one you think is better:
- Yokohama AVS ES100
- Goodyear EAGLE F1 GSD3

Any opinions are appreciated.

thanks for the quick response. Is there another better tire you would recommend around the same price range of the GoodYear GS-D3 or would this be my best bet?

looking at some comparable tires the GS-D3's look very attractive and I would probably go with them or possibly the S-03's

225/45-17 BS POZ S-03 POLE 164.00
245/40-17 BS POZ S-03 POLE 191.00

225/45-17 GY EAG F1 GS-D3 143.00
245/40-17 GY EAG F1 GS-D3 163.00

225/45-17 MI PILOT SPORT 177.00
245/40-17 MI PILOT SPORT 193.00
