13x9 diamond wheels b/c they're cheap.

seriously though; what Travis said... there've been plenty of threads on this lately but to recap: it seems that the preferred size is anywhere from 13x7 to 13x9 wheels with 225 hoosiers or 235 Kumho's. Panasports are really nice and light but they aren't cheap

How does a wheel "hold the road?" IB4TL, while I'm in here.

I thought that you'd want nice heavy wheels so you'd have "road hugging weight"

need more information. what wheels are tires you use will depend on what class you are running in as well as your experience level in autocrossing.
