Dirt Tires

I am in need of some dirt tires that can handle some gravel. I have no idea what brand or type to get. I have a stock STi wheels ('05) 17x7.5 IIRC. What are some tires you guys have had luck with in the dirt?

ive always loved the look of these...and cheap price too.
notice the little mtns on the sidewall...so cute!

i think these tires are the last resort before buying rallyX tires which will last a few 100 miles

Anyone know which 15" wheels I'd need for my '02 if I wanted to get rally tires? Cheap would be great. Old Subaru wheels would be even better.

Most 15's won't fit over WRX brakes. I know. Ask psoper about his problems finding a real rally/dirt tire in a 16" fitment let alone finding an inexpensive 15" wheel that fits over WRX brakes.

15's fit over 2000 RS brakes just fine. I've got my original Legacy turbo 15's and a set of JDM WRX v.1 or 2 15's with snowtires mounted for the wife's RS.
