Phil,
        See my earlier post on Tires.
        Why did I go for 7" Panas rather than 6"?  Aside from the fact
that I was prepared to deal with the clearance problem (which you may
or may not have on your car, and this is the most serious issue), the 
7" wheels have a "more aggressive" appearance than the 6" in that the 
polished part of the dish is deeper than on the 6", I think by about
1".  Anyone ever compared 6" & 7" side-by-side?  The autoXers out
there may also attest that there are tangible handling benefits fron 
the wider rim, but I dont live at lateral 1G, so I cannot offer any
advice there.
