Get the best tires you can afford; big name brand with a good reputation like the ones you mentioned.
EDIT: One person's individual experience and biases should be taken with a gain of salt. I have personally used Michelin's on ALL of my cars and trucks for about 30 years now and have had not one speck of trouble. Well, except for the set of Hydro-edges which I hated. :)
BUT....IMHO, I think it is a huge waste of money getting "premium" tires if you don't use them many miles in a year and in "light duty" service. That describes my use and I get the cheapest ones that my truck tire dealer recommends. They need to be replaced due to age WAY before they are worn out. I hate to throw away 4/5 of the tread on a $500 tire.
