I hope this is the right section as its sort of mod related.
Which would get you the fastest 1/4 mile times?
Small wheels or big ones? When it comes to it I'd like to get involved. If I had stock size rims ie 15's but got a really wide tyre on it (for traction), would I be faster than with 17's?
For drag racing ideally you want the lightest wheels possible. Up front you'd want a very skinny wheel - e.g. 15 x 4
On the back you want a high walled tyre as wide as you can get - something like a 275/50/15
Sort of like this;
Small turbos - they're not big and they're not clever!
Just say NO to small turbos!
I'm not sure but I think you can get wide high walled tyres on quite narrow rims - plenty of US guys run 245 drag tyres on a 15x8 rim.
The 275's shown above did require the arches to have work done on them.
