Kenny,
The best 165R15 tire is the Kumho Power Star 758.  The tire has a UTQG 
rating of 400 AB and a speed rating of T (118MPH).  These rating a better 
than almost any other 165R18 tire.  And the best part is Tire Rack has them 
for $40 plus shipping.  Get them from Tire Rack and then have your wire 
wheel guy mount and balance them - don't have it done at a regular tire 
dealer.  The only down side of the Kumho is it isn't the graphics aren't 
vintage looking.
Vrooom vrooom,
John
