Josh wrote:I have 17's on the RS and 15's on the GS, IMO 16's look the best give you plenty of tire, brakes don't look quite as small, and they are not overly heavy. My 17's weigh 22lbs a piece...
I got some of those 17" superlegra"s and they are light but I wish they were 16"s any day of the week because TIRES ARE CHEAPER
