A better question is, why the hell would you want dry-rotted used tires? Don't be cheap.

Those tires are usually sourced from places that recycle used tires, to answer your question. They are sent...

I loved mine and thought it was a great sports sedan; however, it was expensive to maintain. I didn't do any work myself so I'm not best suited to answer how hard it is to work on.

Haven't had them in my hand to look, but if the shoes are anything like other cars with a mini-drum e-brake setup, they're small and thin meaning you've probably worn them out as they weren't...

Sounds like you probably cooked the emergency brake shoes. If so then new shoes is the only effective cure. The emergency brake on these cars is a drum brake inside the rear hub. It's pretty...

Zero out your toe, or run a tiny bit of toe-in (1/16"), but max your camber.
