Tires for 2005 Toyota Camry SE V4?

I think it would be P215/60R16 and some load/speed rating (preferrable: V) but which brand/model would be the best and has the best deal these days? I am looking at Sears, Walmart but looking for some good deals - can someone help me with some coupon or deal for these tires?

Do I really need the "V" rated tires? Can't I use anything like "H" rated ones? My current tires are all "H" rated.

if you want cheap name-brand tires, you might be a lot better off just buying them online. check out tire-rack.com, they have quality tires and the prices are usually a bit cheaper than most stores(tip of advice, avoid Wal-Mart at all costs for any car-related needs).

as for a tire recommendation, i'd say check out the Uniroyal Tiger Paw. it's an all-season tire, and it's just very well overall. the tread ware is also minimal, so with proper rotation it can last you a couple years or more.

***EDIT: the V and H codes are speed ratings on your tires. if i remember correctly, H is around 130mph(which is pretty much useless considering your speed governor kicks in at 105-110mph). whichever one you get, you're more than good.

@wondering: dude, seriously? you in no way helped her with your question. the engine configuration is completely irrelevant to what she asked.

I just posted this a couple of days ago on another question:

There is no such thing as a 2005 Camry with a V4. The V designates the engine configuration it DOES NOT precede the number of cylinders for every engine. Your 4 cylinder engine has all 4 in a straight line hence it is known as an inline 4 or I4 for short.

V means 2 banks of inline cylinders joined by a common crankshaft. When viewed from the end the engine resembles the letter V.

There are V4 engines but those are 2 stroke/cycle outboard engines made by OMC and sold under the Johnson and Evinrude names.

There are also flat 4 engines sometimes referred to as boxer engines.
