Tire Recommendations for stock 16 x 7 wheels (archive)

TireRack guys or anyaone else willing to chime in. I'm looking to upgrade the 205/55-16 GS-A's on my 323i with 225/50-16's (seems to be the most recommended size). Currently, I'm leaning towards either Dunlop SP-9000, Dunlop SP-5000, or Pirelli P7000 SuperSport. What would you recommend, given the following:

1. retaining stock 16 x 7 wheels
2. not really in the mood to change out tires/wheels for winter. For reference - I had a set of Pirelli P7000 SuperSports that were acceptable in the winter on my old Maxima.
3. As much performance as I can get with reasonable tread life (30-35K+), low noise & good ride qualities.

Feel free to recommend something other than the tires I mentioned, if appropriate.

Thnx!
