Rally Cross tires.
Couple things to consider when buying gravel tires.
Temperature that you will be using the tires in.
Track surface, hard pack, loose, sand, mud etc....
Power train configuration FWD, RWD or AWD.
Tire size and width of the tire as well, will effect gearing, and can also also stress the drivetrain. If the tire has the same daimeter, but it is too wide for an under powered car, then you will not have accelleration. For a certain course/rally a wide(r) tire is desired, as you wil not get into the ruts as easily.
Power and torque of the car.
If the car is equiped with limited slip differential(s)
Suspension travel, ground clearance.
And also how the car is prepped, stock or a rally car.
If it is just a rally X car, it might be an auto, that will also change your tire choice. And as always, your budget.
Feel free to email me about your tire questions.
