Zlancer, I'm getting Kumho rubber on 17" rims today. What tires do you recommend? Advan makes some way soft rubber...it's what all the Japanese Bosozoku racers are using. These are really Yokohama tires manufactured under the Advan label...
If you really want to go faster, you need to stick with 15 inch rims or smaller.. less inertia and weight + more tire = better 60 foots and thereotically better 1/4 mile times.
The stiff sidewalls on the tires of the upgraded 17 rims won't help you much either, add that to the extra weight and intertia required to move the rims/tires and you're just worse off than using stock rims/tires.
