6" or 7" - does size matter?

I'm talking about rim widths of course!

 

Is there any benefit to putting 7" rims on the rear. If combined with the correct rubber/springs/shocks would I get any benefit over 6" rims other than the cosmetic aspect of filling the arches. Mine's a 1700 de-dion supersprint. What are the pros/cons?

 

Any thoughts/comments welcomed.

 

Cheers,

I'm not much help other than to say that on my 99 deDion I put 6x15 on front and 7x15 on the rear. I have a rear roll bar. The car feels perfectly balanced so no complaints. I did it for cosmetic reasons but didn't want to go to 7's in the front as I feared it would affect steering feel.
