I am running 215/60R16 Kumho Ecsta HP4 716's on my '97 Olds Cutlass Supreme 4-door. They are reasonably priced, and do perform well. However, I am a little less than impressed with the amount of sidewall flex. I like a stiff sidewall. I'm also noticing less than stellar tire wear. I have about 15,000 miles on them, never been rotated, and the fronts have 6/32" and the rears 7/32" which makes no sense on a front wheel drive car. They started at 11/32" as normal. I'm not sure what tire to use next. My Lumina needs tires, too, and while I want something inexpensive, trying to find a nice tire in a 205/70R14 is tough.
EDIT: I had 205/55R16's on the above mentioned Cutlass from GoodYear, in the form of the Eagle RS-A. Gripped nice, but terrible wear. Got about 23,000 miles out of those WITH rotation.
