1985 300TD all-season tire recommendations

All;

Due to a belt issue with one of the inexpensive Michelins on my 1985 300TD, I now find myself in need of replacement tires. Wear is sufficient enough to justify purchasing a full set of four.

Looking for recommendations on an all-season tire for use in Virginia and that will also take me through the mountains of W. Virginia in the winter (I-64).

I would prefer to stay with the original 195/75/14 size, unless the majority of responses indicate that 205 is the better way to go. I was hoping for ConitTouring Contacts, as they work well on my Accord wagon and the wife's 900S, but can't locate them in these sizes.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Yokohama Aegis LS4 would be the best choice in that size

I just put a set of Firestone (Dayton) winterforce tires on the rear of my 81 300SD and love them! Great in snow, ice,rain and they are studable! My size was 195/75/14.
