I think more rims are must. Now, for bigger rims sizes, in my mind there must be given some sizes, which they have + or - of performance characteristics ( cornering, acceleration, deceleration) depending the type of race ( time trial, drift, drag ).

Example: in Nissan Micra K12 the stock size is 175/60/15. Then you have the options 185/55/15 or 185/50/16 or 195/45/16

Sorry for my English if not good enough... :)
 
I'd like to be able to have separate wheel options for front and back, such as width and offset.

It also bugs me how on some cars with larger rear tires than front, changing the wheels results in the rear wheels being larger in diameter to keep the tire thickness the same. It looks wrong to me and I end up keeping the normal wheels. The only cars I've come across that keep the wheels the same diameter with thicker-walled rear tires are the VW W12 Nardo and the Honda NSX LM road car. They are two of my favorites.
 
I don't get the fascination with wheels in GT5. The last thing I'm worried about in a race is how cool my wheels look.

Imagine a world without aftermarket parts.

"Oh hey there's an interesting Mercedes CLS 550. And again. And again. And again. Man I'm bored of that car"

A world WITH.

"Oh hey, there's a CLS 550 but it has some pretty nice rims and the subtle body kit is sweet."

I know this is a crazy thing to add, but I'd rather have an option to disallow performance and visual modifications to cars by Ferrari and Lamborghini.

What? Why? We already have only like two option.
Some people complain about not enough modding option and yet someone else want even less things, no wonder pd have problem choosing their way lol

It looks that bad? I hate the stock rims on the 458.
Talking about performance i just added some power with removable parts, no engine stage or racing exaust, i hate the sound.
But someone likes it... options. They can.

I don't see any racing car with stock rims, anyway. It's definitely a legit request.

These things remember me the livery debate. "THIS IS NOT NFS", classic comment. But every racecar have one.
