Which Kumho Tires are a Good Choice for 1997 S14 Stock Wheels???

Just wondering... I currently have P205/55R16 89S Steel Belted Tires on my 97' 240SX and had a 6 inch drill bit poking out of my sidewall so I need new tires. I was considering purchasing Kumho tires for the rear because I can't affort a wheel/tire package right now, so I need a "meantime" fix. Does anyone know which Kumho tire would fit my (they say 17" stock wheel on 97 240SX) stock wheels and what would you recommend? Open to any suggestions and thanks for any replies.

I have Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's all around on my car (205/55/16), and they are excellent in the dry and seem to be pretty good in the wet. I think they are available on discountiredirect.com.

BTW: If the size on the tire reads 205/55/16, then your rims are 16" hombre. 240's from 95-98 came with 16" rims stock.
