Lightbulb Looking for New tires

I need 235/45/17 W speed rating, All-season tires and I have been looking at the Fuzion ZR1, Dunlop signature Sport and the Pirelli Pzero Nero MS. Not sure what to choose. I don't drive fast to often but sometimes. Don't want to cheap but don't wont to pricey. I am looking to stay between 125-160 per tire. Anyone have any ideas on what would go good on a 2004 A6 2.7t S-line? Thanks

Just trying to see what people put on these cars. First time getting tires on this car since I brought it.

I live in Missouri and my dealer was trying to get me to buy the tires from them at 180 pop, they were the Pirelli Pzero but not sure what exact ones they were. He said he would align, balance the tires and install them for 950, i was like let me get back to you...then at this independent dealer they were selling the Fuzion ZR1 for 661 install...WAY better...and I heard a lot of great things about these tires..

I just bought a set of Yokahama YK520 in that size. VERY nice tires! Very good dry and wet traction. Reviews indicate very good in winter as well. I too was thinking about the Dunlops as well as a set of Continentals and Bridgestones, I'm extremely pleased I got these instead.
