Falken doesn't make the Azenis sport in a 13" size.

Azenis are fine on steelies. Why wouldn't they be? Wheels are wheels.

But you're going to have to at least find yourself a set of 14" steelies and buy 195/60-14 Azenis, because as JeffS stated, Falken does not make the Azenis Sport in a 13" size (though I'm sure there are many STS drivers who would kill for Azenis in 225/45-13 . . . ).

You'd probably be better off finding someone giving away a set of 14" steelies, then buy Azenis for those... or find a used set of wheels with good tires on them.

Yokohama A032R can be found in a 13" size . . . I've also seen people cramming 225 Hoosiers onto the stock-sized 13x5" wheels on CRX DXes.

I agree with JeffS again though, 14" steelies are rediculously cheap and so are 195/60-14 Azenis. I'd personally go that direction, unless you want to be legal for Stock class or something . . .

Or find some cheap 14x6 wheels, the little bit of extra width compared with steelies may be better. Not too hard to find. 6.5 or 7" wide ones are harder.
