Hi Ian, Yes, I've done a lot of research in the past for both my 165bhp Crossflow 7 and my Blackbird engined car - both of which I raced. And yes, you are right, 13" are way better and much lighter. I'm keeping the 13" for the track. However, what I'm looking for is increased ground clearance which 50's on 16" will give. I don't need the ultimate handling for the road. Interestingly, R888Rs which is what I am running. have a better range in 16" than in 14" or 15". Cheers, Barry
