Try Bridgestone RE930 or Pirelli P6000 if they got the right size. The 
Bridgestone Expedia S-01 is wonderful stuff, except when it snows. I 
wasn't impressed with the Pirelli P4000 Touring tires -- ho-hum tires. I 
also got Bridgestone RE940s but I couldn't really say much about it 
since it's on my 4WD minivan -- and I'll be damned if I'm going to 
corner hard in that sucker. But I must say the traction in stopping is a 
good improvement over the original Dunlop SP Sport D31J.
