Default 15" or 16" rag setups.. pro's and con's

I've been looking ALL over for decent priced DR's/slicks on the forums and local sales (craigslist)

I see 15" tires everywhere but no 16" (275/60-16 or 28" tall tire) tires anywhere. I was pondering the idea of going w/a 15" setup, is it better? I don't think I'm putting down much down w/my setup (maybe 310rwhp) but it seems the cheaper way to go.

I found these wheels on Summit



http://www.summitracing.com/parts/USW-84-5860L/

what do you all think, go 15's or 16's?

I still have a list to do, engine mods are on hold but 4.30's are on the way
