If my 16.5" steel wheels with the Firestone tires ride like Wagon Wheels imagine what these would do!

Then again, what modern sports car doesn't have low profile tires?

Anyone ever try over sized rims with low profile tires, I have often thought of this and even looked into tire options which make them the same radious for gearing, I think the lighter rotating mass would be an asset?
