Which tyres?

I need to replace my front tyres which are currently original fit Bridgestone Potenza RE050 225/45 R17 91W.

Are these the best for maintaing mpg, quietness, wear and the usual essentials of stopping in the wet etc?

In the last quarter of the life (now 22K) the have got noisy with a rumbling sound.
