I personally would not drop your speed rating from a W to a V. Lower speed rating in short means softer sidewalls. you're going to lose some of the sporty feel though you do have the option to do so. I wouldn't recommend the MXV4's since they are a touring passenger tire. The Primacy MXM4's are a performance luxury tire if anything.
