In response to the request for a tire recomendation:

A couple of months ago I put some Pirelli P77's on my 280ZX and
couldn't be happier.  

	o Excellent in heavy rain.  I had no problems with hydoplaning
	  even in standing water on the freeway (up to ~65mph)

	o I've driven on packed and unpacked snow and ice in the mountains
	  with no problems.

	o Good sticky tires on dry pavement.

The tab was 350.00 for four, mounted and computer balanced (including a
Tektronix employee discount).

If the requester is not concerned about adverse weather, I hear good things
about the Pirelli P7.
