Mad Dog, Mike and others:

Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge with me.  This forum 
is incredibly useful.

Tire Rack prices were lower than I expected - $219 for Yokohama AVS 
Intermediate 345/ 35 ZR 15  ($346 for the Pirelli Pzero System 
Asimmetrico) and $190 for the Yoko 285/ 40 ZR 15.  This means I can get 
into a set of good street tires for $818 plus shipping and installation.

Before ordering I am interested in the arguments for going with bigger 
wheels and what my options are.  Some of the aftermarket wheels really 
look sharp!

TIA,

Barry
