I am using a General Grabber UHP 205/70/15. I run 38 psi. Tried 36 psi and seemed a little soft for my taste. I am sure others will chime in soon.

Congrats and welcome to this great site Steve. cheers
Whatever you choose will be fine, although there are differences for sure.
No matter the tire you gonna ride, take your time trying it out.
Take a nice afternoon, or morning, to ride the same route several times, starting with
for instance 42 psi and lower it wit 2 psi each next time.
You'll find the right pressure for you.
I can't help you out since I did the foot's mod. (1800 C rims on a 1300)
Let us know and enjoy it.
