Wheels and tires

So I'm looking to change to my 3rd set of rims and tires in 3 yrs (roads around here suck). I'll probably go with something off tire rack. Anybody have any strong opinions on non-run flats and/or rims?

Wow

Nobody has an opinion? Wow. Did not expect that at NAM.

I'm just getting ready to start shopping for new tires.... You might try the tires and wheels threads.

OK - You might consider 15" wheels - the higher profile tires might save you from some pothole damage.
