I could well be wrong Carl but i dont think so.I think if you want the 195/55/13 profile your limited to the uniroyal rallye.

Somebody did post pics of a gtt with low profile tyres on the 13's once upon a time. It looked shocking :cry:

Are they not a bit dicey in the wet?

Don't believe that, 888's are fine in the wet, Paul B did a full track day in the wet on them...

Fair enough. I've never tried them but probably will at some point. :)

They are easily as good as any road tyre in the wet in my experience;)

You used to be able to get a 195 45 13. I used some on a mini once. I've heard they're out of production now but could be wrong.
