Iirc, these are 225/45/13 on 8" Revolutions. They tend to look really odd, even on this 7 that's been lowered. And no, that's not me in the pic, lol. He's younger than my sons. :)

Why are you changing to a smaller tire??? Do they still make the 235/45/13 V700??

Yeah i know...they do look a little odd/small. But...when you need them you need them. I think they will look OK on a autocross only car... Don't think I would want them on my street car.

I saw a Hoosier slick that was like a 20 tall by 8 wide 13 inch rim on an old school MR2 autocross car....those short tires sure looked funny!!

Also I thought about going to the 215/50/13 kumhos but tire rack only has 2005 year models in stock. I called Kumho and they said the tire will still be made but are being made at the factory overseas currently...

I did not want 2005 stock,,,, tires seems to lose their "good" after about 3 years even if they are new.

What "year" are the Kumhos you are getting?

Here's those same Revolution wheels that Trochoid posted pictures of, mounted on my car with 215 Sumis.

I think they look just fine. :)

They look so good on your car because your car is slammed. The other car they were on is sitting at nearly stock ride height.

It sure looks better when the car is lowered!!!
