Bridgetsone S-04 vs. Bridgestone RE760 ~ Suggestions?

Okay. So I would like to get some suggestions on what tires I should upgrade to comparing these 2 options.

Size: 215/45/17 (Only)
Goals: More Grip!
Concerns: Road Noise, Comfort
Cost: Not a deciding factor

Bridgestone S-04 (Max Perofrmance)
Bridgetstone RE760 Sport (Ultra High Performance)

I DO NOT TRACK/AUTOCROSS

That aside I would like a tire with more grip compared to the stock tires.

I was dead set on the S-04 but lately I've read about how the RE760 may be a better tire for the street in regards to comfort and noise. (However just went to Bridgestone website and it seems as if based on the reviews the S-04 are more quiet and perform better?)

Anyone have opinions on this? Is there a big difference?

Also, I have used 3 set of tires on my Subaru but it's hard for me to compare them since the car was AWD...however

Falken Azenis - Loved the grip! Forgot everything else about them haha.
Falken FK453 - Hated them...poor dry grip...horrible grip in the rain (So I hope even the RE760 are better than these)
Yokohama S Drive - Better than the FK453's (Hope RE760 or S-04 are better than these)

Thanks!
