Re: <VV> autocross tires and wheels
You might want to look at the Sumitomo HTR 100's. They have 205/60/15 that are
$46 new on tirerack.com (there are a variety of other sizes also). The are
supposed to be very sticky, just not to good in the rain or snow, and won't last
real long.
If you are looking for used, you might try a track in your area and look for
tires that racers have tossed out that still have some life.
