Subject:Conclusion: Go with SIXTEEN inch wheels/tires

Hello...

Well, the OVERWHELMING response out there on my question regarding
whether to go with 16 inch or 15 inch tires/wheels when i get my
T1 Proxies was to go with SIXTEEN inch, not 15 inch...

Thanks a ton for the advice everyone...

Looks like will be going with T1 Proxies 215-40-16 to go with 16' wheels...
apparently, 16 inch Proxies are made differently and better from 15 
inchers, which is one reason to do it 16 inches, but the other is that
you apparently DO get better performance without sacrificing ride
quality too much...

I also got lots of people explaining the value of a lighter wheel vs
a heavy one...

thanks for the help everyone!
