Rich -- thanks for articulating this question so well. I'm very intersted in exactly the same issues.

Given the research you seem to have done I assume you know that one street-tire option for those rims is this Pirelli
Pirelli PZero System
and also the Hoosier tires Ron has mentioned.

So my question for you is: the sentence I quoted seems to imply CR82's are the only solution to "keeping to the proportions"? Did you mean that?
