suggestions on tires??
well, i'm about to order new rims/tires in the next couple weeks. i plan on autocrossing my car and i just need some suggestions on good tires. what do you all recommend? i'm not looking to pay more than 90$ a tire. they'll have to be either 205/40/16 or 215/40/16. is there a big difference in weight between different tires? i want a combination of light weight and really good traction on my tires. but good traction is the priority.
i was thinking about getting the Kumho supra ecsta 712s, but i'm having a hard time making up my mind. i'll also be driving on the tires just about all the time so i also need them to be made so i wont be as likely to hydroplane in the rain. thanks in advance

falken azenis, yokahama parada spec 2.
both have excellent traction, and are still driveable.
the paradas are $81 on www.tirerack.com
how wide are your rims?
