Tirerack as a ground truth, then go elsewhere

I just put some Continental CH95s on my 95 SET. I was getting tired of the harsh ride (KYB struts) so I changed from the performance 50 series Falkens to the 55 series Continentals. Cornering ability is seriously compromised, all-season is gained. The car rides so much softer on these NYC streets, but I can not corner nearly as confidently. Is there a 50 series tire out there that does it all? It's a game of trade offs.
The purpose of my posting: I priced tires at tirerack, added the shipping cost and the ~$16 per tire to have another shop mount and balance. I called shops (actually, only one) and asked them to meet or beat this price, they were happy to. Total cost $368 out the door. Tire rack would have been $390, plus hassles (shipping and warranty work).
