Hi all,
I am currently in the weeds trying to decide on the best option and I'm hoping you can help. I am looking to get back into autocrossing just for fun. I'm not concerned about building a nationally competitive car, I just want to have fun. My 2017 FiST is stock, except for Swift Spec-R springs and a Mishimoto intake. That puts me in GST and I'm fine with that, but I don't want to go into SP. My street wheel/tire combo is 16x8 Konig Dekagrams wrapped in 215/45 Falken Azenis RT615K+s, but my tires are just about done. I could either keep my current setup or get dedicated wheels and tires for autoX and a street setup with a little more longevity that still yields fun on the occasional on or off-ramp. Money is a factor, of course. The easy, and not necessarily wrong, answer is to buy another set of 16" Dekagrams with 215/45 Azenis RT660+s (or, ?) for autoX, get 205/45 Firehawk Indy 500s for the street, and call it done. Another easy answer is to keep doing what I'm doing - buy another set of RT615K+s, and run them both on the street and at events. Then there is the option of going a little crazy with 15" wheels and something like 225/45/15 Kumho Ecsta V730s, but I'm having trouble finding 15" wheels that would fit.
My head is spinning.
Help?
Thank you
