Question 2002 ES300 preferred tires?

I'm trying to find out what tires will be most ideal on a 2002 ES300-- I have been loving the Michelin Premier A/S 215/60R16 with 95V speed rating tires that I've had on them but they unfortunately no longer manufacture these! I just like how they feel and handle. I once tried cheaper Michelin's and had to go back to these Premiers as they just drive so much better. Anyone know what tires are comparable or even better?
The 2002 ES300 has approximately 130K miles on it and I've had it since it had around 6K miles and I've always replaced them with these tires (or almost identical if manufacturing changed during the years...).

Default Tires

I'm currently running on General AltiMAX RT43 RT on my 2003 ES300. Love 'em. Quiet, smooth, good traction. Can't ask for more than that.

Default Premiers A/S

I had a full set of Premier A/S’s until my girlfriend ran over a nail gun cartridge near a construction zone the other day on my 2001 ES300. Mine are sized P205 60R16. Never thought it would possible to destroy one until this past Saturday!
