Something wrong with the R rims on the car?
1) The 17 inch Volan(s) are in excellent condition. If they sit up in my attic, they will stay that way.
2) Kim would like a softer ride. She doesn't care about cornering.
3) The suspension seems to work harder with the 17 inch wheels. I would like to put more stress on the tires and less stress on the car.
4) New BF Goodrich H-rated TA sell for $135 in 205/50/R17 and $80 in 195/60/R15

There is nothing wrong with the Volan(s) on the car. I have several reasons to move down to 15 inch wheels.
1) The 17 inch Volan(s) are in excellent condition. If they sit up in my attic, they will stay that way.
2) Kim would like a softer ride. She doesn't care about cornering.
3) The suspension seems to work harder with the 17 inch wheels. I would like to put more stress on the tires and less stress on the car.
4) New BF Goodrich H-rated TA sell for $135 in 205/50/R17 and $80 in 195/60/R15

I like the replica first and then the Musca. The others don't do much for me. The 96 850 we bought for my son has the 15" Cetus wheel. He would like to go up to a 16" or 17" wheel. If you were interested we could work out a swap of the wheels. There are 4 brand new Toyo tires on the wheels. They are in good shape with some curb rash, which most 11 year old wheels would have. If you are interested you can PM me. There is a picture of one on ebay,

Not even going to entertain the 6 spoke silver niads?
The five spoke has been done a lot but would still probably look the best and would be a hell of a lot easier to clean than the Musca which is my second choice
