Which all-around lens should I order with my new A57?

Could anyone speak to the quality of the following lenses as I need to decide whether to get a "bundle" with one or two of the zooms listed when I purchase my A57 today, or just the camera body by itself and purchase a couple of good primes separately. Thanks so much!!
Sony 18-55mm
Sony 55-200mm
Sony 18-135 mm
The 18-135mm is probably more convenient for my needs, but unfortunately it is only a deal when bought with the A37 right now - it costs about $100.00 more to get it with the A37 rather than the standard 18-55mm lens (or $200.00 more than getting the A37 camera body alone), but bundled with the A57, it costs $300.00 more than getting the 18-55mm lens (or $400 more than getting the camera body alone). By comparison, the bundle that includes the A57 with the 18-55mm & the 55-200mm would only cost $100 more than just getting the 18-55mm lens & camera body. However, if these lenses aren't good quality, then I'd just prefer to get a couple of primes until the price of the 18-135mm lens drops. Please feel free to recommend better quality zoom lenses if you like!
