Well, in my quest in getting my 87 X 1/9 on the road, I'm still having trouble finding adequate tires. I looked at tirerack.com and found only Sumitomo All season tires in the 185/60R13 size, the racing Hoosiers I don't need. I'm looking for a grippy High Performance tire, I'm used to the Bridgestone Potenza S03. My question is, can I jump up to a 195/60R13, or a 195/55R13? If I really have no choice but those Sumitomos, what wheel upgrades is the most common? I haven't found anything on tirerack or tires.com, I've hit a dead end. Is the lug pattern 4X100? or 4X98? What is the offset? Does someone have a set of wheels for sale? I'm located in Western Mass. Give me an email at [email protected] if you can help me out. Thanks alot!
 
I used the Falkien Zeigs, but I haven't bought any in a few years and I have heard they aren't making them any longer in the 13" size... Not too many makers are still producing 13" streetable racing tires...
