Default Which tyres for 450 05 sti

Looking for a bit of advice really on the above.. The car is a daily driver for the wife approx 10 miles a day so the tyres will not get no thrash then. Then I have the car at wkend. I don't thrash it but drive it more spirited shall we say. At the mo I have Avon zz3s on which I've been happy with apart from noise. So basically I'm after a good tyre within my budget 150 per corner.
Thanks for any advice
Oh the wheels are 18"

For that money you'll struggle using the above no? Toyo Sports are around £140 a corner and I think they're pretty good. Not so on the track or under a heavy foot in the wet but for the money I cant complain.

I will however be switching to the Conti sport's next time around.
