I don't think that's really an agenda here, Rick - ANY car in A or S is already allowed 7" wheels and NONE of those in B or C are. The ONLY way that this becomes an issue is if a car is moved from A to B - like the MkIII Golf. I didn't for one instant assume that I could run 7" wheels on that car in B just because it had them in A and, to the extent that this question has to be addressed, it can be done on a case-by-case basis during deliberation about whether or not to reclassify a car.
The question of widths is not really at issue here and for my role in sending the topic that direction, I apologize. We got there by worrying about the availablity of 15x6 wheels, thinking about allowing B and C cars listed with 13" and 14" wheels to step up - which really wasn't an issue either: There are no B or C cars currently allowed to run 7" wheels - 14" diameter and rare, or otherwise - so the ORIGINAL question at hand fundamentally doesn't apply to those classes...
...therefore, one option would be an amendment to Darin's original wording limiting the proposed change to ITA and ITS cars. Take a bite-size piece of the issue and worry about 13x6 and 14x6 availability issues if and when they arise.
The alternative is to go with the proposal as originally written and accept that the 15x6 is never going to be common so won't truly be a viable option. Frankly, I don't think it matters at this point, regardless of the concern that I voiced earlier.
