What are you SE guys doing for tires on stock wheels?

My 84 SE needs new tires, but locally I am striking out on finding 205/60/14s to go on my stock SE wheels.
Tirerack doesn't have any more choices than local shops.

I thought about getting some new wheels, but I think I would like to keep the stock SE ones for now, so what are you other SE guys going with?

I have used each of these tires in the stock size (205/60-14). Prices are from Tire Rack.

Sumitomo HTR H4 (all season) $52
Sumitomo HTR 200 (summer) $56
Yokohama AVS ES100 (Ultra High Performance Summer) $93

Falken Azenis are good summer tires and are cheap. They are worthless in the snow and just OK in the wet. Check out www.discounttiredirect.com or www.vulcantire.com.

I think you have to go with 195/60/14 size though.
