Having dropped the cash for the Continental Vanco 2's(D range 107
tires) in a 215/65/16, I will say that they are definitely a truck
tire.  They ride pretty hard even at 43/48 psi, but man does this 90
GL handle around the corners now.  As previously mentioned, I would
see these as 3 season tires and I haven't had a chance to drive them
hard in heavy rain yet, although we've had plenty here in the last
month.  Paid $130 each for them via Tire Rack and waited like 4
months for them to show up.  Maybe the less expensive Vanco tires
would be an option, but not sure if they come in 16's and don't know
the load rating.

YMMV
