Default Best tires?

Hi, I still have stock tires and they are very poor in handling... I am wondering what the best tires for the IS350 are? Price doesn't matter, nor does road noise/comfort. I just want tires that will provide the best dry and wet handling.

Pilot Sport PS2's or Bridgestone RE050's are the two best handling street tires you'll find (they are true street tires, not reduced treadwear tires like RE01R's or Pilot Sport Cups)

BFG KDW's are right behind them, and then Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's are close, as are Yoko Advan Sports...

edit: can't forget BFG KD's, but they are made in very limited sizes...
