As an  automotive aside, can anyone recommend a web site that has 
really good  data on tire & wheel dimensions? I'd like to find a 
better size for  winter tires for our new Jetta. Wide and flat may be 
trendy, but they're  NOT good on snow or ice. Tirerack.com has good 
data, but it's hard to get  comparisons, and their web site doesn't 
want to let me try a 15" wheel on  the Jetta. 16" is standard, but I'm 
pretty sure there's plenty of room to  do a -1" over those brakes.



Jim, you might want to look at this site.

(http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html) 
I use it for calculating tire speed changes and the like on my t-3s. But  
they also allow different rim sizes in their calculator. It won't help with  
looking for different rims and offsets though.
