Regarding tires, 17's have more options in many brands. We had a set of 16 and 17 inchers for a race car, the 16 in rims just don't seem to get teh support from the big race tire companies, I think because most of the factory sports cars went to 17 and 18" wheels. Just my perception.... Dave __________________ Dave - PDX 1995 318ti - Active Black and Tan. 2005 330xi - Mtech 1 - 6spd - Orient Blue/Black |
