I know the current trend is fitting 18 or 19 inch wheels and most people on the forum have gone for that look, but I wanted to try and keep a more classic look, as well as keeping the weight down and ride quality up, and risk of bending wheels down on our lousy roads. I lost 40 pounds of unsprung weight with this set up, and the car is noticeably more responsive all around, with an improved ride quality and much better braking action.
