Yeah , thats the only thing keeping me from "down-sizing" my 18's kill acceleration and braking but handle really good . With 7.5" lenso's I could run wider tires than I am now. Imo the mojoyaris's car looks really good with the 13's and the c-one kit

I'm trying to find a good street/track tire in 13 for these rims, but so far the R888's are all I've seen, and I don't want to be replacing tires every 3,000 miles. :\

I wish I had some Miata friends to test fit some 15x8 6UL wheels instead.

so buy a set of race tires and put them on the 13's. use the 13's only on race day. sounds like a good compromise to me
