Just how fast are you going? I just got 205/60 15 greendiamondtire.com MDV3 for my 9k. They also have a high performance Extreme. Supposed to have the best rain & snow traction of any "all season" tire. After a few 100 miles I can say they're a bit noiser but with much better handling & stability than the previous awful Michelin MX4s. Since I don't drive like an asshole I can't tell you what they're like at 90mph but they certainly feel very secure in rain at 65mph.
