First, I would recommend a 196/65 15 or a 205/60 15 for your next tire if you are looking for a wider selection and availability. Goodyear Aquatreds for excellent dry and wet weather traction. There is a moderate increase in audible noise in the cabin due to the directional tread design, but they perform very well on the Accords. The Pirelli 4000 is also a good tire if you want something more along the lines of an M+S offering, very nice for highway driving and durability. The Yokohama AVID is the most bang for your buck thanks to recent price cuts but will not offer the specialized wet weather performance of the Aquas, but will perform comparable to the Michelins.
