I love the 16's I got, but then again, I'm running Yokohama DOT race tires and don't care about tire mileage. They wear out in about 10,000 miles. BUT, man do they GRIP! I'm so spoiled by the superior traction of a DOT race tire I don't think I can EVER go back to Comp T/A's again. Anyway, 15" tires set the car up to high and give to much flex in the sidewall for good "racing" applications, and race is what I do. 255X50X16 on 10" wheels in back, 245X50X16 on 9.5" wheels up front. Compomotive.
