Rims/Tire Size for Pulls and Drift

Supra Saiyan · 07-30-2010, 06:57 AM

I am trying to decide what wheel size to go with. I want to have a my supra be able to pull on a straight away, but still be nimble when I power over a corner. Here is what I know I want..
MY CAR IS LOWERED BY 1.3in due to my SPRINGS! KEEP THIS IN MIND!
1.) Front - 18X9 Back - 18X10 Rims for sure! (Is this too big for drifting a corner or two with our heavy cars? Will the bigger tires require more power to perform more drifting moves?)
2.) I don't want a tire size to poke out more than the frame. What is a good size to keep them wide in the back? and on track with the rear in the front?
3.) I don't want a tire size that will rub, or end up hurting my springs/shocks..

Help me out guys.. Please... I want mine to look like this tire wise..
