BTW, Kuhmo started making the V710 in 225/50/16. Very awesome tires. Better than the Hoosier S04 in my opinion. Haven't driven on the S05 yet though.
Keep us posted on the results. We all want to see "Subaru SVX" on the trophy at the end of the year. 
I would love to see an SVX at an autocross event. If anyone in Norcal wants to get into an autocross, let me know. You can come as my guest.

Matt,
Yeah, I noticed that the V710 was now in the 225 size. Unfortunately, I'm an "Ebay" tire guy -- $200 for a new tire is waaaay too rich for my blood.
Trophy? I'd love to say this is a possibility, except GS at FedEx has 3 guys that compete at the National level and at least 6 guys that have been at it for 10+ years (and they're running Celicas and Minis!!  )
That said, only time will tell
-Bill
