16" are fine and tyres are affordable to smoke up without having to put shit rims on. as for the dizzy, internals out of a RB dizzy will fit and if u want a easyer swap look for a rodeo dizzy

17's fit fine, i have never had any probs with turning or anything,

have seen 18's on a Gem, but look too dominant on the car,

just flare the guards and get a panhard rod under there

18" wheels require:
A jack, a wheel brace and an engineering approval.

Electronic distributor:
No G series engines were fitted with an electronic dissy in Oz. They all used Nippon Denso sytems with (Bosch GD214) type points. You may be able to fit a LUMENITION kit as an alternative.
