Vredestein makes a wonderful tire and the 185HR14 is what I use on my stock wheels. Also use their Pinzas for my G. If you don't want the whitewall look, I'd say they are the way to go. I believe Michelin and Pirelli likewise make a good-quality tire in our size, aside the (also good) whitewhall reproductions that Michael mentioned, but imo the Michelin/Pirelli options are overpriced compared to the really seriously good Vredestein. If you're considering sizing up or changing wheel dimensions, some people have had fine luck with 215 at most, but that depends on the condition of your car (assuming it's at proper height and whatnot) with an overall diameter of no more than about 26". I believe the stock overall diameter originally-originally, based on old threads around here where people measured NOS Firestone Phoenix and the like, is perhaps a hair above 25". Lots of threads about here on "tire nirvana," as well as the information in the tech guide, though I think it could be a bit more comprehensively-updated with all the options people have found over the years.
