Anyone out there used either of these tires? Help me out please

Azenis ST-115
Dunlop FM901
Yokohama ES100's

Out of these 3 , i've used the bottom 2. One thing that worries me about the dunlop is that the max pressure is 55psi! ...and it doesnt have a reinforced sidewall and it seems like jello.

Now assuming all of these were run as a 225-45-17 on a 9 inch wide rim, which would give the best overall performance for sidewall stiffness, grip, smoke, not chunking, and lasting long(er)?
Also if anyone's used the new Azenis RT-615, is that something you would drift with? they are about 50 bucks more a piece than the ones listed above, so that's why i didnt want to include them.

Have you used other tires that you like that compare? Let's hear about it. If this thread seems redundant at all, that's because it is.
