Indeed... I'm wondering the same thing. I guess there are several threads on this topic but I didn't find them to be too conclusive. Apparently they're kinda hard to find. I think the Sumitomo HTR T4 are a pretty popular one.

I bought Goodyear Viva 2's from walmart for my vx wheels...they seem to be pretty good lots better than the 17" wheels I had on the car before them...But I have only driven 30 or so miles with the new rims and tires.

It seems Quatrac 2 has the correct VX size of 165/70R13 and is reviewed as a good LRR tire. Not sure about its handling characteristics tho.

Here's their website

Kinda expensive: $214 for four. Each tire weighs 14 pounds.
