The D60 A2's are "OK", but not that good. I have them on my
'89 100Q. They're a bit soft, and don't handle as well as I'd like.
They are kind of overwhelmed by the size of the 100.

For the same $$$, I recommend the BFG Touring T/A. Quieter, and
better grip (even in snow, which I gather is not an issue for you).
I have these on my '90 90Q20V and '95 A6QW.

For a few $$$ more, go for the BFG Comp T/A VR4. Better life,
better handling, and much better able to hold up such a heavy car.
