Smile 1993 SL500 with 19" rims- tire suggestions?

I am fairly new to this and will try posting again, this time in correct location ! I bought this car last fall and it already has 19" rims, good or bad I am not sure yet. Anyway I need tires and find this more confusing than buying a car ! I have tried this site and others trying to get an opinion, since the one thing you can't do is "test drive" tires. I think i have narrowed down to Michelin PS2s, Goodyear Eagle F1, or Nitto Invo. Anyone have experience with any of these ? I know Michelin are likely the best, but budget is a concern as other work (soft top) needs to be done.....plus my wife and kids like to eat once and a while. I am leaning heavy towards Nittos. Any comments are appreciated.

I think your wife and kids need to quit being so demanding . . . .

the PS2 are a fantastic all around tire and while they do give up a little ultimate performance to the Eagle they make up for it with slightly better ride quality. Then Invo is the Chevy Aveo of the bunch .... meets the low cost portion of the equation but, not the same level of perfomance, ride quality or tread life
