I have the Kumho Euro-Metric 165-15 on the 60-spoke wires. Cost me 28
bucks each from Tire Rack two years ago and they work great. Lots of stick
for this style of tire and makes the car look and feel like it would have
in the old days. I've picked up a couple of autocross trophies with it,
too.
The tire of this type that used to work great on my Sonett was the Kleber
V-12, but I don't know that you can get them anymore.
