It would also be a plus to have a tire that is quiter than the SS's because those make the cabin fairly unpleasant on the freeway. Also I will be transitioning to rims 18x19.5 as opposed to the stock 17x7 rims. Please give me yalls opinion!!!!

Look into Nitto Invos. I have those and they are amazingstreet tire. They shine in the rain and are amazingly quite. They do lack alittle dry performance (vs high performance tires) though but they are stillbetter then stock and an upgrade everywhere else (but snow). Only down side isthe smallest size they make them in is 225/45R/17 but those still fit stockrims. They are also fairly heavy tire to incase you care.
