One max size per class makes as much sense as limiting to stock diameter and makes finding wheels/tires a bit easier.

let me clairify my position a bit: I do NOT want the current restrictions on width changed, just diameter.

I went with "plus one inch diameter" based on a coin toss. Either that or unlimited diameter, 7" width.

BTW - I have no dog in this fight as I can run 15s. But I'd really like my friends with ITA Hondas and Miatas to be able to benefit from the goodness of cheap, light wheels like the Kosei K1 as I have.
