just my 2ps worth on the subject of wheels and tires..

Go for 15" as 16" will make the car very 'bouncy' with low profile tires..

Careful when you buy your alloy wheels as the offset needs to be the same as rover's (if I remember correctly its offest 45 - otherwise wheel will stick out of the wheelarch)

Even with 195 width, you will almost definitely need to cut out some of the GRP under the wheelarches in the front as your wheels will rub when suspension is compressed.. So forget about anything wider - the car really doesn't need it.. (we race with 195 width rubber!)

Hope this helps?
Dylan
