Re: Yokohama AVS-S4V

I am on my fourth week on my new set of Yoko AVS S4-Vs all seasons and 
for the past few miles I've heard noise that the local dealer calls 
"tire noise" when rolling.  I previously was running with Michelin MXV4 
(or something like that - they were terrible) and did not hear any 
noise.  My first hunch, or shall I say...panic, was that bearings were 
rubbing or that the center diff. was lacking fluid, so I went straight 
to dealer: "tire noise."

Does anybody have similar experiences?  I have a '94 90csq and am used 
to vault-like silence at any speed.  Could it be a bad tire?  I will try 
rotation tomorrow.

Thanks in advance for your reply.  BTW, the yoko S4s are a significant 
improvement over the Michelins.
