need a solid v rated tire for handling

[irondiezl3]

I have a soft comfort tire now and hated it from the day i put them on goodyear intergritys. I didnt do research on tires and ratings and handling. My concern is cornering and handling. From what I have read speed rating plays a big role in that. so I was looking for some v rated tires. I found a kuhmo platinum and a goodyear eagle gt that are v rated. is that pretty much the gist of it for handling get a hard sidewall? anything else to consider or know of a tire that worked great for your alero?
