You can stuff a 180 onto your 160 rim, but it will effect your cornering. Or you can put an F3 (wider) rim on your F2, which I believe just takes some different spacers. Not sure, but I know you can search somewhere on google for steps on how to put on an F3 wheel.

You will have to get a 5" rim off of a FV model etc. The early FM model like mine had a 4.5". On 5" riml the only mod I had to do was cut the bearing rubber on the disk side to accept the FM spacer. I use Pirelli supercorsa pro diablos as everyone else that races steelies. I have no hadling issues and mega grip levels, and turning into corners is just as quick because of the 55 profile which gives it slight bigger height.
