Ok, thanks for that info :) I am thinking about using a 16x8 wheel with a 225/45/16 tire. The R16 tyre diameter is 605mm, 18mm more than the R15 tyre. I'm putting a longer gear set in the box which which should suit the torquy motor. While what you say about the 17 inch tire seems to be good, it is ...
