Anyone know offhand what the SMALLEST wheel size is that fits on a 1G with stock brakes? Screw handling, I want to put some tiny little lightweight rims on and then some tall sidewalls that get me a nice flex on the launch.

I seem to remember Jim's old 1.8l with some 15" steelies stock. That was a 93 also.

I know 14s fit. I had 'em on the Loser. 185/70 14. Oh so crappy. Hell, you might even be able to get some 13's on there.

I know the autocrossers would hate the idea but I'm kinda thinking that 245/75/R13 might be a nice drag set-up while still being streetable. 7pound 13in. rims are relatively cheap as well.
Guess I better check to see if anyone even makes that tire size before I get too gung ho over it though.

The loser huh? Hey shes still running, but sure dont sound good, damn lifters are getting pretty loud on me. I have had nothing but problems with that little motor, maybe i should have spared the eclipse, and parted the laser out. Oh well shes gone to her final resting place now.

Actually Autocrosser's understand the benefit of a smaller diamtere, lighter wheel. The tall rubber on the other hand is a different story.
I think there is a happy medium in there somewhere...
