Time for new tires - let the debate begin

OK I know - Tires are totally subjective but it is still a great thread to bring in the new year with. I am due and will need to pick some up in the next couple of weeks. I was thinking about a set of these

Here's my details
2003 Boxster with 18" Carrera's with stock Michelins- got 12k on them.
I drive this 2-3 days to work + weekends.
Maybe do a nice road trip every 2 months.
I like tires that stay quite as they wear (the Michelins have been pretty good at this - my Kumho directionals on my TT were terrible).
I live in Florida so lots of summer rain.
I live in Florida so lots of summer heat.
Driving mostly straight roads except for the extreme fun I get hitting an on ramp - again it's Florida.


Questions - Should I order on-line and have my local dealer mount and balance?
Local guys ok? Directional versus asymetric? Which tires would you get?

Let the debate begin.
