This probably only applies to 3 people across the entire Southeast, but figured I'd post it anyway just in case.

TireRack currently has 155/80R13 Firestone WinterForce tires on a sellout for only $31 each. Sell will only last till they run out of current stock.

Tire is close in size to the stock 175/70R13 tires for Rabbits/Golfs/and several other small cars. A bit narrower, but pretty close to the same height.

The stock size runs $41 each and is not on sale.

Next best thing to a real Rally Tire (and possibly better than a Blizzak Snow Tire in my opinion)

Is it me, or does the SEDiv Rallycross website link on the left side of the page not work any more?

I thought is was just the network nazi's at work blocking it, but I haven't been able to get to it from home either in quite a while.

Same size?

I wish you'd have told me sooner,

I went ahead and got 2 of them from Tire Rack
(I don't think the rear of the Rabbit will be doing much biting and gripping).
