What size wheels do you think you get the best performance out of?

What are some of your opinions?

What about the fact that the more rim you have the stiffer the handling is going to be.  The less rubber you have will give you better handling because rubber flexes but aluminum does not.

exactly.. the tire wall will affect perforance. the narrower the tire wall, the less flex on a turn.. a tall tire wall will give you comfortable ride, but you will have bad handling.

so for the best performance... 14 inch light rim with a narrow tire wall.
