touring tire recommendation, NOT performance (archive)

Can anyone recommend a tire based on the following critera (most important to least):

1) all season - needs good wet handling/braking
2) at least H rated
3) mileage
4) ride noise
5) cost (around $100/tire for 215/55/16)
6) some dry grip would be nice for my occasional drive "to take care of errands"

It's for my mom's 1998 Maxima SE. She does not care about performance, just one with a nice "ride" and mileage. But performance tires are usually better for braking power, as safety is important.

I've heard good things about Yokohama Avid V4, Continental ContiTouring Contact CH95, Bridgestone Turanze H Revo ($$$).
Any experiences?

Thanks,
(Cross-posted, sorry but need info ASAP)
Jack
