Do you really want to put bad tires on you $30K sti and possibly wreck it? Why don't you just buy some retreads?

You might have to call around for them, basically, they buy old tires and put some new rubber on it and resell them. Really cheap unreliable tires.

Falken Azenis ST-115. If it's good enough for sponsored D1GP drivers...

They're not expensive either.
