mmmm, the exception proves the rule???  i've certinaly never seen anything
sms/mtm have done with different wheel sizes.  i'm not saying that they
haven't, just that they put out a lot of kit with the *same* wheel sizes.
if it was such a win, why would they do that?

fwiw, the rsr which i've seen has the same size rims (18") front and rear.
we're talking about the 480hp rs2 aren't we?

	I agree, a couple years ago European Car did a write up on the
RSR, a souped up S2 with bigger tires (and wider rims) in the front.  They
did testing at a track to determine this was the best set up, hardly a "I
dont know, just guessing" procedure, not that any of you are doing
that... ;)
