If you want a DOT radial tire, you should consider the Avons (some say they are about the best 15" Cobra tire on the market right now). The primary downside of the Avons is the cost (as they cost considerably more than the other tires that have been mentioned).

I found two links that sell Avon's directly. Nice tire, but like you said, a bit pricey. About $200 more than most others std mfg's radials. But very tempting. Here's a couple of direct links for others to enjoy... Please post if you find anything cheaper.
