[MR2] MKII tire/wheel size

[Donald Chalfant]

Since my right foot is not as heavy as it used to be, the overseer is not 
necessarily inevitable these days, but I can crank up some additional 
stiffness as needed with the adjustable KYBs.  If necessary, I can even pull 
the front swaybar links.  This works well for normal use and unlike Colin 
with 48,000 miles on his, mine are running more to the 148,000 and won't be 
seeing any more track or autox action.
