For True High Speed Driving and Overall Performance What Wheel Size and Tire Size?
I am wondering what wheel and tire size should be used for true high speed performance?
Most tuners like 9ff, Techart, and Cargraphic are using 9X 20 Front wheels 12x20 rear wheels with The tires sizes of 245/30-20 at the front axle and 325/25-20.
The reason this suprises me is that I keep hearing that 19 and 18 inch wheels and tires are better track tires and actually better overall use but all of the above tuners are doing high speed track runs at over 200mph with 20 inch rims and a little bit wider tires.
Im just wondering if all the tuners are going for bling or if they actually have a reason to be running the 20 inch rims instead of lighter 19's???

For track 18's for looks 20's
I think tuners need to have the looks, although they might influence the performance, more resistance.
Take 2 sets one (18's) for track and one (20's) for every day use and the looks
