175/60/r13 im looking for some help trying to find a canadian supplier or someone who can supply a race/performance tire for the miata i am planning to drive over the summer something like the kuhmo v700 or even a more all season tire would do. i need some enlightenment i have contacted many tire suppliers and couldnt find a thread about this wherever i have looked.. |
a 215/50r13" fits without rubbing on a miata... but you need 13x8" rims |
^um i'm sure you could run a 13x7" wheel too. |
If you're looking for a tire with good performance and for cheap, Sumitomo makes their HTR200 tire in quite a few hard to get small sizes. Most notably, you can get them in 175/50r13 and 205/50r13. The former is what I run on my 13x5 wheels on my Honda CRX. Super light weight (24lbs including wheels!) and a very small OD for less inertia, and the equivalent of buying a set of aftermarket gears. In my CRX, I go from 4.25 -> the equivalent of having a 4.50 final drive with the OEM tires. It's lots of fun. |
to the OP: figure out your application and go from there. There is a MASSIVE difference between the V700 and an all-season tire. The V700 is a competition (R-comp) tire -- it's road legal but won't last too long if you daily drive it. I believe that Teamwork AutosporKs can get Kumho r-comps in for you if that's what you're looking for. |
