Really though, I think this is the first rally build that I have seen on here. Keep up the good work.

Wait, you're swapping out the Brembos??? Why, just so you can fit a smaller wheel?
I'm redoing the lights to cut down on total # lol.

yea, rally tires come most commonly in 14" and 15" sizes (some 16" too) so I'm going down to wrx 4/2 pots to run 15" wheels and tires

the tires are not DOT approved

and yes, they are a gravel tire which sucks since the majority of our events are held in dirt (doesn't stop me from finishing fairly well - 4th in m4 and 6th overall at our last event). you can find used rally tires from local rally teams. new tires can also be purchased. hankook makes a number of "affordable" tires.

here are a couple shots of the car in action from the last event
