All-Season, High Performance tires?

I have a 1998 900SET and am using Yokohama AVS S4-z all-season high performance tires. They have worked quite well with the exception of being a bit noisy, especially on pitted concrete. My friend is using the Dunlop SP5000 on his SAAB, and it is a great tire. The Dunlop SP5000 is quieter and has more grip than my Yokohamas.
The only drawback is that the Dunlop is only available as a 205/55-16 NOT the SAAB issued size of 205/50-16. The 205/55-16 will fit your car, but will result in the speedo reading about 3% too slow.
