Hi, Ray!
Just for grins, I checked The Tire Rack:
UTQ    Size        Price     Make/Model
200    175/50-13   $65  BFG Euro T/A
160    175/50-13   $44  Continental CH90
160    185/60-13   $50  Yokohama A509
???     185/60-13   $62  Yokohama AVS Intermediate
60-80  185/60-13   $84  Yokohama A008RS
60-80  185/60-13   $84  Yokohama A008RSII
60-80  185/60-13   $90  Yokohama A032R
 60     185/60-13  $103  BFG T/A R1  (also listed at $113)
 40     185/60-13  $128  Hoosier R3S03
  0     185/60-13  $117  Hoosier Bias Ply
I'm impressed that there are 4 street tires with UTQ 200 or 
lower which fit your rims!  Sumitomo was listed with tires of
260 UTQ, so I didn't include them.  It's funny that Yokohama,
a company we all feel has left the autox market behind,
has three R compound tires under $100 in Ray's size.
Ray, have you tried the Yoks?  I'm currently using cast-off 
Spec Racer tires in these sizes for the street.
