Let's see. Stock size is P205/55R16 front and P225/50R16 rear. What
would come in those sizes?

I've heard good things about the ContiExtremeContact from Continental.
Perhaps it's not an all-out performance tire, but it's supposedly
excellent in the rain. It's only V speed-rated, but I'd think that's
a minor point. Other than that, the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 is
supposedly a very good performer, with better tread life than
similar summer tires. It's designed and manufactured in Germany.
