So i have got to get new tires for my 850 turbo wagon. Here is what i have narrowed my search down to based on reviews on discounttiredirect for driving in GA. My two main conerns are wet traction, noise, wear (in that order).

Nitto NT 450 Extreme Performance 81
Falken FK 452 82
Falken Ziex ZE-912 84
Pirelli Cinturato P5 90
Kumho Ecsta ASX 90
Dunlop SP Sport Signature 98
Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum 102
Kumho Ecsta MX 103
Hankook Optimo H727 111
Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec 114
Yokohama YK520 115

Currently I have a set of four "Kumho Ecsta ASX". I bought them for 70 four years ago. Not sure why they are 90 now. I know i will be ok if i get them again but just knowing there might be something better, quieter out there for a comparable price has got me asking. Thought some of you might have some recommendations.
