Cliff, one of the things I really like about Tire Rack's web site is that
you can read what others have said about the tires on their cars.

Have you considered going to a 215/65 ?  That would open up some higher
performance choices, and still fit and maintain speedo calibration
reasonably well.  I see Tire Rack has a close-out on Yoko AVS-I in that
size, which is an "ultra high performance" tire.  The Bridgestone RE92 is
also available in 215/65; I've been very happy with the ones on my TR3A
(which are the NLA 205/55 size).
