Dave,
Take a look at the Eagle GT2's. They are passenger tires, but they Perform wonders and handle really well. The tread wear is 420 and I managed to get 275/60-15 on all corners. For this size You'll need to relocate a grounding screw, but it's easily done.
Remember:
Ratio x width x 2 Divided by 2540
+ Rim Size (15") = Tire Size
examples: 275/60-15= 27.99
235/70-15= 27.95
