OEM replacement for 2002 TL (not type S)

I would like to replace my OEM tires with the Yokohama V4S tire since I have read good things about them. Acura recommends replacement with P205/60R16 91V tires. I cannot find the Yokohama in this size. The closest I can find is a P205/60R16 91H. Will the 91H work or can someone suggest a better tire (Toyo?)

The difference between H 130 mph / 210 km/h Sport Sedans & Coupes
V 149 mph / 240 km/h Sport Sedans, Coupes & Sports Cars

Realistically you don't need a V rated tire if you are not taking the TL over 130 mph....

Try tirerack.com for additional information on tires...
Pirelli P6 Four Seasons or Bridgestone Potenza RE92would work if you are going for a V rated tire in a P205/60R16 91V

or you could try 225/55/16 many have are running these;
Continental ContiExtremeContact
Yokohama AVS dB S2

Since mounting Toyo T1-S on my TL I sincerely will not purchase another tire. I've since equipped my 540i with these and couldn't be happier.
SIDENOTE: Toyo will be releasing the T1-R which will replace the T1-S. Updated design with stiffer sidewall for better turn-in and longer thread life.
