    Possible new tire for autox E30

    If you can get them to fit, 13x10's and 255/35/13's.

    These would be wide yet short enough to possibly not have to cut/flare the fenders.

    Just thought I'd mention it in-case it was missed.

            Get smaller brakes off a 2002 or something? You don't need big stuff for autox only cars...

              going that small and wide produces more complications generally with inside rub. I don't know how desirable the handling characteristics would be on 13x10's anyways regardless of any caliper fitment issues. Also I can't see tire options being vast for 13x10's... so unless they make some great tires in 13x10, you're probably better off handling wise with a more conventional tire/wheel size with better tire selection.

              Just my thoughts, but as far as if you just like the looks, and are a lazy butt and won't go roll your fenders even though you want to improve traction by widening your stance and putting on big wide tires, then all the more power to ya, haha.
