You mean the tire Dean mentioned first?

And it's not "wasting" your autocross tires if you don't use them on the street until after you've had them a season or two. That also makes it easier to stretch your winter tires an extra 4-6 weeks at both ends of winter to almost guarantee you don't catch a snowstorm on your autocross tires. So maybe 3 sets- snows from the day after the last autocross to the day before the first one, fresh tires for competition, and last year's autocross tires from May-September on the street?
