I'm about embark on a few track days in the second half of 2020 and thinking of purchasing a new set of wheels and tyres to be used exclusively for the track.
I did some track days between 2008 and 2011 and always went down a wheel size as per the recommendation of expert drivers. My current vf2R runs 19's so thinking of going 18's for the track, or even 17's. Is it still the general consensus to run not too big a wheel, say between 16" and 18"? I remember a track day experiment years ago in a Clubsport where they upped the wheel size to 20 inches and the handling/grip suffered as a result.
Cheers
