I have a 96 850 Turbo with sport suspension--it originally had the 16" alloy wheels, but I liked the looks of the non-turbo 15" alloy wheels better and had the dealer swap them out when I bought the car. The taller sidewall of the 15" tire makes up for the difference, so it is no problem. (I put snows with steel 15" wheel on in the winter). A benefit of the taller sidewall is a smoother ride--850s have a very stiff ride (which I like)with sport suspension on 16" wheels.
