Re: i need help finding tires.
How wide are your wheels?
And what kind of car is this going on - a '90 Civic perhaps?
Is this for the track, or for street use?
If this is for street use on a '90 Civic, the short answer is that there aren't any really good street tires in 13" sizes. (And remember, what really matters in grip is the make/model of tire and how sticky it is, NOT the size or treadwidth.) If you want to step up the performance of your car, the best way to do it is to get a set of 15" wheels and slap some sticky 195/50-15 tires on them. It's pretty easy to find used 15" wheels for not a whole lot of money, like Integra GS-R stock wheels.
