    I don't know of any tyres in that size.

    I recently got 175/60/13

    if you do find some, i'd be keen to see how they go.

    another possible size might be 215/50/13

    nah just normal street tyres

    im not sure if they still make them. I got a pair that were made in 06. Probably the last of a batch.

    Would be worth checking with a supplier tho. for what they were id pay that money again for 13's

    falken makes the 185/60/13 and 175/60/13 in the RE912? i think it is, I just got a pair of each, as well as a pair of 205/60/13 for good measure.

    were under 150 each

    rfrom what i hear, they're meant to be rather grippy, i don't know about how well they'll take abuse though.

    these are going on an occasional driver, so i probably won't know anytime soon.
