pirelli P6000s are your only choice in a non A/S, but my experience withthem (albiet in an H rated 215/55R16) was that they were great when new but really were the worse for wear after only about 10K miles). downright scary at low temps in light drizzle, and 3 of the four had to be replaced due to impact damage (the only tires i've ever had to replace due to impact damage are these and the W210P snows on my sister's integra. apparently the lightweight design isn't as tough as other tires.)
the Yoko AVS dB might be a good choice, although i have no first hand experience with it...
wish i could be more help...

p.s. note that my experience with the P6000s was with the non sport veloce A/S ones
