You can find a good selection over in Europe, cheaper even with shipping. I
found the best way is to buy a set of wheel adapters. That way you could buy 
cheap (or not, ) Miata wheels 4X100. I use 15" and a 190/50 tire. The tire
height is less than a 13/205/60 tire.

Toyo Proxes R888 in
185/60/13.  Fits well, drives well, not expensive.

I have found it harder than I
thought to find a good set of street/auto cross
tires for a Spitfire. The size
that is recommended is 155/80/13 but I have
heard that 175/70/13's fit. The
only tires I can find locally are crap. I
would like to find a nice set of
Kumho, Hankook, Firestone, Bridgestone, etc.
Something name brand. Does anyone
have a recommendation of brands,
availability, or even have a nice new or used
set? I wanted to get tires
before our drive to the Kastner Cup, but will have
to deal with the shop
rollers I have on her now. They still have decent life
left on them.



If you know of any, please let me know.



Thank you and see
you at the KCup!!!
