What size of tires and wheels should I run. I've hear that people will decrease wheel size to get taller sidewall tires. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

You sure you want to rally-x your STi? You realize you're probably going to break it?

As for smaller wheels...not likely on the STi without changing the brakes.

Default stock snow tires???

I'm prepared for the consequences. I"m not going full out modified, just stock, but can run aggressive tires.

I also am planning on entering a rally race in the near future. Would like to enter this one http://www.targanewfoundland.com/

It more than likely won't be this year but possibly the next so I wasn't planning on asking a bunch of questions when I know I don't need the info right away, but since it's on the table...

Anyone have any tips on how to dress up the car for a rally race? Tire wise, brakes, muffler, suspension etc? I want to enter it as stock class.
