    Default best 235x45x17 tire for commute?

    I just bought some BMW OE e39 style 32 8x17 ET20 wheels for my 95 525i. I will need to buy hubcentric adapters. Not sure if I need plastic or metal.

    Big question what brand "ALL SEASON" tires would be best in my situation with a daily driver/commute car. I am currently looking at the new Bridgestone Turanza Senerity or Michelin Exalto. Also thought about an older style tire, the Bridgestone G009. Most important is wet handling, tire wear, and comfort and low noise. Dry handling is seconday. Any thoughts?. TIA
