fitting within a tight household budget ~$100/tyre, I have narrowed my search to the following 4 options. Usage will be daily driving, occasional spirited canyon driving, no track time, and I have a set of dedicated winter wheels/tyres.
to go on my 2000 Civic hatch, in a 205/45/16 size
Anyone with experience, thoughts, or suggestions at the ~$100/tyre range:

an instinct is a good enough answer, were they all equal perhaps someone’s instinct can help me lean one direction or another

Underwhelming in general. The limit of traction was always a little nebulous or tough to know exactly. Decent in the wet, though, I’ll give them that

Looking to replace tires on my car, phoned a good friend, a Yokohama Race Tire man in Adenau, a village in the lowest point of the N-Ring, who has been deeply into tires all his life. Asked which tire he would recommend for only hard street driven ‘88 M3. Without hesitation he suggested DUNLOP Direzza DZ102 (__NOT the 101__, he strongly urged). Said he, “Very good tire, with race-like rubber. You’ll enjoy them.” They will be on the car Monday...
PS: FYI, TireRack has them on SPECIAL with a REBATE from DUNLOP too.

Out of the choices you posted I would go with the bridgestones. No real reason why they just seem like a better tire.

their price reflects that thinking :P they are the highest of the 4, but I’m leaning taht way too.
