I was looking at my GRM that covered the recent nats, and would note that most of the hot CSP cars (those pesky miatas and the occasional MR2) are running 13" wheels. Anyone ever run some 13's on our 914's, and if so, wadda ya think?

If I were to do this, it would be with a custom made wheel. The street prep rules allow any wheel size, so some silly offset to clear the brakes would be O.K., as the rules also allow wheel/tire to extend beyond the body work, and with a 13 I wouldn't be likely to need to mess with the fenders to clear, and the car would instantly have a lower center of gravity. Just some thoughts and the reasons behind the thoughts.
