I suppose that decent handling is a double edged sword. On one hand you
might feel inclined to take turns and curves faster than normal because
of the added grip; on the other hand, a better tire might save you from
getting into a sticky situation in bad conditions. Personally, I'll
always go for grip no matter how I drive or what I am driving.
I can't really click the link since I am at work and looking at car
stuff is sort of frowned upon (or probably is; I don't want to find
out) :)
You might want to look for something with a decent balance between wear
and handling. Maybe one of the Dunlop SP series tires..
I am sure that others are going to chime in here with tire suggestions..
good luck
