15" or 16" at the track- is bigger really better?

I have been looking for a set of 7" & 9 (or 8)" wheels for track tires for my '88 Carrera. I have been looking for 16". Most of my track time is at Road Atlanta and I never really run out of 5th gear and I could always use a little more grunt coming out of turns 7 & 10. So I was thinking that I might be better off with 15" instead of 16". The 15's would open up some more options with selection and $$$ and maybe be less of a clearance concern. I have been thinking Fuchs for the most part but am not tied to them. What are your thoughts and opinions.

While we are at it anybody have a set for sale

Thanks,
Andrew
