If that or any size lacking an aspect ratio (being 80 by default)....Cooper (& sometimes Michelin) is pretty much your only choice. I agree about the stiff sidewalls, which is why passenger cars get bounced around so much by them. I never said they didn't handle well! Anyone putting Coopers on a light Japanese car (ie, Civic/Corola/Sentra) may as well be driving on "super balls". My experience as stated is now a bit dated (10yrs or so) & things may have changed...but I doubt it. I applaud the company for producing a tire that's much better quality than the price would indicate. Also for continuing to manufacture rubber for old 60's & 70's VW/Porsche. My bro has a set on his 66' 911t.
