I would say the 17 and 19mm are too close to the 25 to make a real difference, something wider would give you more options. From the ones you mentioned, I would say the 9-18mm is the best bet, although I picked the 12mm myself.

The 17 mm, while close to the 25mm, has a lot of merits; the 17 mm is great if you want to go out with just one prime, and together with the small and light 45mm it makes a great 2 lens kit. But I myself have put it on hold for the time being, it is more or less the superfluous addition, the last one I will add.
