I've used two sets of Dunlop D60/A2 H-Rated tires on my '92 100CSQ, and 
am now on my third. I replaced the first two sets at after about 35,000 
miles even though they still had tread on them, largely because I don't 
like to run my treads to the limit. I've been very pleased with both 
their performance and wear. And they're not particularly expensive, about 
$60 a piece plus shipping, if you purchase them from Tirerack, or around 
$70 if you buy them locally. Good luck. They're not great in snow but the 
snow around here (Philadelphia/Reading) has never stopped me.
