But why would you?. surely you will just end up with too much rear end grip, need bigger rear wings, lose the ability to drive it on the throttle, less fun, it's probably one of those questions that hasn't been asked before for a reason, a set-up like that is unnecessary IMHO..

I don't think you'll find any Caterhams owners who've gone for wheels that big. (Perhaps with the exception of the Levante cars?).

I've fitted a pair on 9" rims, and they sit pretty well. I think they'd cope with 10" no problem.
