One of the things I noticed is that the fascination with huge diameter
rims tucked up as far as possible under the fenders and quarters is still
prevalent in the hobby.  Fords, Chevys and Mopars alike are all getting
the same treatment.  This practice is starting to ware a little thin on
me.  The cars are starting to appear somewhat cartoonish in nature.  
Also, I do not consider rims over 17" in diameter to be suitable for
performance applications.  Should not form follow function?

We are currently planning on 17" rims for our project.  Personally, I
think that these look rather massive on this car and that bumping them up
in size would take us away from our overall theme.  

Even so, people have been dropped me notes saying that the car deserves
something a bit larger, say 19's in the front and 20's in the back.

As with everything else on this project, we are going to go counter to
the current trend.
