Default Dunlop SP Sport 9000

I'm looking at getting 19" wheels soon and I have read so much about Bridgestone S03 and Toyo T1-S tires from several CL members but haven't heard too much about the Dunlop SP Sport 9000 tires.. What my priorities are is half decent tire life, good or better wet weather running and better or best dry handling..

So my question is will these Dunlop tires work for what I need or should I just scrap the idea and get S03's or T1-S or is there something else that I should be looking at??

Any help would be most appreciated!

sp9000 has excellent tread wear rating...if only its price could be more in line with the S-03s...the S-03s should be more expensive being that it is the lastest model, but i am surprised at the prices at the rack, relatively speaking...
