Tyre straits!

Hello,
I live in Dubai and my G35 has been with me for 8 months. Having done under 16K kms, I have a problem with the stock tyres. The stock tyres were from Bridgestone - potenza RE050A. One of the rear tyres just wouldn't keep up with the pressure and heat this place is accustomed to, hence regular "low pressure" lights light up my display.

The rear tyre stats go: 245 45 R18 95W
Having said that i checked with the service center and the tyre dealers here and here are their responses.
Service center: "sorry, this tyre is not available anywhere in UAE"
Bridgestone tyre: " I have only 2 tyres in stock"

This has left me no option but changing both rear tyres wherein lies my query.
Which one?

I have googled up the following and need some expert advice on which one is the best bang for the money - i'm also looking at better grip and lesser noise at high speeds.

Michelin pilot A/S plus
Pirelli PZERO NERO all season
Continental contiextreme contact
Yokohoma Advan S4
Kumho tyres are also pretty popular here.

i would appreciate it, if any of you staying here facing the same problem or would like to advice me on the best buy as I can't stand the "low pressure" lighting up and greeting me when i start my car every morning.

Please help!!
