wagonwheels, was: <VV> Tired of tires?

[airvair]

Oh heavens! Unless you are autocrossing, why would anyone want wheels
larger than 15 inches? You can't get a section larger than 65, and even
they are not as common as lesser sizes. Also, as the rim size goes up,
so does the price. Then there's the log-wagon ride. My Cav has 16's with
55 section tires, and you can feel every tar strip in the road. When
they wear out, it's getting 65's at the minimum! I call them
wagonwheels, as in Conastoga. A rediculous fad if there ever was one.

Just my opinion, and I'll no doubt get flamed to charcoal over it. But
it's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
