tire suggestions for stock 13" rims?

I have stock 13" rims from an '85, i think, and i was wondering what you guys suggested to put on 'em?

important considerations:

must have a cool tread pattern, and must have the cool white lettering on the sidewall.

www.tirerack.com is where I usually check first. Yokohama AVS Intermediate at 205/60 size would fit. Too wide for the wheels I feel, but many people dig that look anyway. My buddy in Issaquah has 205/60R14 on his '82 "7". They work real well on his 5.5" rims. Yokohama A032R at 175/60 would fit pretty well plus tire treads don't look much tougher than these (at least what we in the U.S. can get as D.O.T. legal). The Kuhmo Ecsta V700 at 175/60 would fit and look very agressive. You probably know better than I how hard it is to find good performance tires for 13" wheels nowdays. If you need the white lettering, go to a hobby shop and pick up some paint, your choice of color.
If you ever head down to Redmond, drop me a line.
