Description: Pirelli's standard-issue gravel and dirt tire. This is the tire that would be used by the SWRT in an event such as Autralia. These tires feature a directional tread pattern for maximum forward grip and stiff sidewalls for maximum sideways pushoff in the corners.

Pros: Amazing grip on dirt
Cons: expensive, difficult to find

I've used a set of K-series tires for one rallycross event. They were a set of soft-compound tires, and they are by far the best rallycross tires I've used to date. If you're going for open-class rallycrossing and you want maximum grip, the soft k's are the tire you want.

The downsides are the cost (usually 200+ per tire when new), and the durability of the soft compound. After one event these tires looked like hell (from being basically brand new before the event), and they'd probably be shot after another rallycross.
