My VX was equipped with new 265-60-18's. I drove it this way for a few weeks. MasterCraft Courser HTR Plus all season touring type tire. MasterCraft tires are manufactured by Cooper Tire (I believe).

I felt the 265-60's were too big for my intended driving - so I found a local tire dealer that switched the 265-60's for a closer-to-OEM-size 255-55-18. Same tire - Mastercraft Courser HTR Plus.

I like 255's better. They feel better - and I prefer the look. The difference is noticeable.

The Courser HTR Plus is not a high performance V rated (or similar) tire, but it does have a nice tread pattern and high UTOG (or whatever) number somewhere around 400. The ride is decent and the noise is relatively low. The sidewalls are especially beefy and include a nifty raised area that can protect the rim from abrasions. The price is reasonable also - a tad over $100 a tire.
