Those rides will all be good, in short :)

My only advice would be not to stick too rigidly to the coast, the ring (particularly Kerry) can be busy, although I must admit I never found it too bad. However, there are some stunning in land passes which cut off the peninsulas, which can really add up distance wise too. After i'd done a couple I felt I'd seen enough. e.g https://www.strava.com/activities/383964540

Healy Pass is pretty stunning. I'm sure the coast is good too. And here: https://www.strava.com/activities/383964557
Probably my top day in Ireland in terms of two super scenic, isolated passes, and I think there are more nearby.

I had a bit of a meltdown in Dingle as it was very busy when I went, nearly died on the main road in, although at that point I was tired and wet. By most accounts the peninsula is pretty good but most of the town feels very touristy, so I got out pretty quick. I didn't make the most of Galway or Donegal as I'd agreed to meet some friends' parents who let me stay.

Since my plans were pretty loose I took this map with me:

I found it pretty good, scenic roads are highlighted, although obviously you lose out on some granular detail.

I'd really love to go back so I'm sure whatever you do you'll have a great time. Even when it's raining it's pretty good.
