I see the Hankook Kinergy ST and the General Altimax RT43 are available in 205/70R14 via [tirerack.com](http://tirerack.com). That Altimax has been very highly rated by Consumer Reports (and my local 2-bay service station, where I bought a set for my Chrysler minivan.) It’s been a few years now and they are excellent, better than the more expensive Goodyears I had on there before them. Might put them on my Civic if it ever needs another set of all-season tires.

The Hankook is available with blackwall or with white stripe, so be sure to specify. I see tirerack has sold and has customer feedback on many, many more of the Altimax.

That size would be 10mm wider (about 3/8 inch) than your original size, and 2.75mm less tall (less than 1/8 inch) from the ground to the rim - less than 1/4 inch from bottom to top of the tire.
