None of those tires sizes seem quite optimal. I assume you have the LE rims? Has the car been lowered or the suspension otherwise upgraded? I think you are going to find that contemporary performance

I also have one at http://horton.iaces.com/~proot/tire.html It's pretty extensive, and I already have the stock 165/80 size plugged in. You probably have to change the size of the new tire before the
