New Ibanez Needs new PickUps

I just bought a very nice Ibanez Prestige RGA121H and of course I need to change the pickups. It's 2 humbucker design with 5 pick ups selections
1-Neck
2-Neck Parallel
3-Neck and Bridge
4-Parallel inside halves of Neck and bridge
5-Bridge

I want a Bridge to be able to do extreme metal stuff and the neck to be super clean and clear, but I want to be able to maintain these switching options. Any ideas?

What's wrong with the pickups that are on it now? Are they that bad?

I've never played one of those, so I wouldn't know what they're like.

Either put the Ironman pickup ($180 US) in the bridge or the Seymour Duncan DDJ (Distortion). Wire it the same as the one that you take out. As for the neck pickup, isn't it really clean anyway? I thought that was the reason most people changed them.

...but I definitely like the Jazz pickup in the neck.
