BF goodrich used to make a drag radial that was 22 inches tall for a 14" rim
If your bolt pattern is 5 X 100mm There are tons of cheap wheels out there both used and new. And some are pretty light 11 to 13 pounds.

Art,
The DR's I bought are the M/T P205/50R14's. They are listed as 22" tall. For now, I'm looking at these more to lower the final gear ratio. No more power than I anticipate this current engine making. It has 120K on it. The DR's should be a passable alternative.
I saw the listings for the shorter 15" tires. I need to look around and find a list of the 5 x 100 wheels. My concern at present, would the car make enough power to utilise a set of slicks? I've used slicks on cars that didn't have a lot of motor, we countered that usually with deep gears. This FWD automatic car doesn't have a lot of gear.
