I've heard of 15", but not 16".

13" is big enough. Seriously. 16" are just ridiculous.

1) your speedo will be totally wrong
2) your take off will be seriously slower. An 850 with 10inch wheels will take you at the lights! :lol:
3) handling will be out the door
4) you will need serious surgery to get it to fit
5) It's totally Rice... minis run best on 10's, 12's or 13's.

Besides, you can put any wheels you want on a clubby, but it will still look crap.

:D :D :D
Only kidding. Hehe. Too good to resist. :D
