12 inch rims 27 tires and smaller. 14 inch rims 27 tires and bigger. I like some sidewall on tires so they can flex a bit and helps in rocks too.
Yea, I been thinking about going to 12 inch rims on my P1 to give me more cushion on the rocks, still running the stock 14 inch rims and have busted 2 front stock tires. I am running 8 ply EFX's now, we'll see???????

I can't speak on the 700 but my 1000 works fine with 28's on 12inch wheels. That being said if you want more choices for tires I believe 14inch would be a better choice. I don't see me going away from the EVO's and they come in 12inch...

P500, 15 in rims, 27 (26.5 actual). Very pleased for slower speed wooded, rocky trails and mud. 7 psi. No rubbing.
