I'm a little confused.  "Go" implies you want sticky tires.  Although I
autocross my wife's TR4 at conventions, I use plain skinny all-weather
tires.  If it were my car, and it was planned for "go", I'd have put on
alloy wheels, probably Panasports.

For "go", I'd probably recommend Kumho stickies, but the smallest size in
15-inch is 205-50-15.
