I have 215/60 VR4's on my V8...I suppose I'd classify them as a good
comprimise tire.  Not bad at all in the dry, pretty good in the wet, and
just OK in the snow.  The other downside is that I find them on the noisy
side.  Upside is they are inexpensive.  For the next set (I have about 60%
left now), I'm going to a 16 inch wheel and yoks or dunlops (had good luck
with those in the past...)
