There is nothing wrong with 14" wheels, even 13" do work just fine, they are round :lol:

Well for race / track day some lighter wheels might be nice, but 13" wheels with wider low profile tires are very nice as acceleration is better.

Maybe I'm just getting old and soon starting to freak out when someone even changes radio from original ROFL
