Stephen:
Dunlop SP Sport A2 in 185/65x14. US$53.00 each from Tire Rack.

About as close as you can get in a modern tire to the diameter of the original
155/80x14 (roadster) tire.

Unfortunately, from all reports (owner survey at Tire Rack), it doesn't quite
fit
your criteria, since it IS a high performance tire, great dry road tire, works
almost as well in the wet as in the dry, even works well in light snow, quiet
ride....in short, a true modern miracle. It will definitely be the tire of
choice for
my GT next spring in a plus size, 195/60x15.

Jerry
