What is the "best", in your opinion, all-round tire for an E36 M3 convertible? All stock wheels and suspension.

I live in Mesa Az, so winter performance is not necessary. Road surfaces here are in good shape, home to many miles of rubberized asphalt.

I want the emphasis on lifespan, followed by noise comfort, handling being the least important, but of course not unimportant. Cost is not a consideration, although cost per mile could be.

Thanks

Handling being the least important and wear/noise being most important I would suggest an UHP All season tire like the Pirelli Pzero Nero M+S.
