Autox is not the same as track days, perhaps you should try getting out of 3rd gear. Getting the tires to fit doesn't mean it will work right, I have enough data from my datalogger to prove that.

I just want to buy a set of cheap wheels, they will get destroyed and pitted by the brake dust and tire installer anyway. I did some quick search, it looks like the cheap options would be to get the narrower size rims or just pay a boatload of money for the big bad boys. They get quite pricey when you start rolling 9 or 10" rims.
