Yes! I was looking at the Tire Rack site about a month ago for my son's 
Civic (16" for him) and took a glance at the 13" tire selection - or lack 
of.  The reasonably price Sumitumo HTR-200's were GONE!!! Not only do the 
Cosmic wheels on my Tiger take 13," but the Rallye wheels on my Turbo Pinto, 
and the American (Manufacture), period correct wheels, on my Datsun 510 
also.  Too bad many drive around on forklift like tires mounted on wagon 
wheels these days  (xxx-35-20").
