Street tires

For my '86 911, having trouble finding V rated tires in 195/60/15 and 215/60/15 especially in the big name tires. Are H rated ok to use for everyday driving or should I try for V rating. PO had installed 205/55/15 and 215/60/15 P4000 Pirelli Super Touring V rated but they seem no longer available. Have found only one V rated in the later sizes but they are Chinese made Sonar tires and I know for nothing about them. Has any ever or would they ever use those??

It is getting difficult to get tires for 15 inch wheels.
I use 195/65/15 and 215/60/15 Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS.
These tires are H rated

For me these tires are very good. Good traction in wet and dry conditions.
