Did alot of forum tire reading and still unsure.

So in your opinion which of the following setups would give the best performance and which provide the best threadwear? I don't plan to track the car, but I definately drive "spirited". Also, please note if you've actually driven the tire.

Kumho MX 205/55/16 - 225/50/16
Kumho ECSTA SUPRA 712 205/55/16 - 245/45/16
Fuzion ZRi 225/50/16 - 245/45/16

Example:

Performance:
1. MX (driven)
2. Fusion
3. 712

wear:
1. Fusion
2. 712
3. MX (driven)

Thanks!

The MX is a lot better handling tire in the dry. The other tires are going to be better in the wet and they will wear better.
If I can help let me know.
