New Tyres - Suggestions?

I'm planning to get two new front tyres for my 2003 Yaris and wondered if anyone had any suggestions of what I should go for? Tyre size is: 155/80/R13 (so not the most common tyre size). I currently use a mis-match of budgets all round so I'm looking for something with good wet grip (I'm sure any well-known brand will give me higher wet grip than what I currently have) and something that lasts a fair few miles. Tyres I'm currently looking at are as follows:

Toyo NanoEnergy 3

Dunlop StreetResponse 2 (apparently they're quite loud?)

UniRoyal RainExpert 3 

If anyone could give me some insight on these tyres or suggest something else, that would be great! :)

Could look at the Fallen Sincera SN832 Ecorun which has an A rating for wet grip.

Goodyear manufacture Dunlop tyres for the European market and their equivalent to the Dunlop's are Goodyear EfficientGrip.

Also bear in mind that, where two tyres are being fitted, industry best practice is to fit the new tyres to the rear and rotate the used rear tyres to the front.

Blimey, that used to be a very common size. My 85 Corolla sat on those. 

Another up vote for Falken - got a set on my Auris (ziex 914 ecorun I think). No difference to fuel economy but great value, pretty grippy and quiet. Different size I know.

Funny enough the cheapest place for them was Halfords
