as you stated "Also, wider rear tires usually makes it more tricky to throttle control due to more rubber." now since im using a 4port engine (t2 deturboed) for extra reliability, my power is waay down and not to mention torque. also as i have stated previously i have to have stretched tires to spin the 17x10 w/ federal 595 225 series tires at the rear. i should be using a smaller diameter wheel but it just looks funky

now til i blow up this engine then go v8 then ill choose to run non stretched tires but til then ill work with what i have.

So basically you're insisting to run "big" wheels (which are heavier than properly sized wheels) and then run smaller tires just to get the proper (less) traction?

So you're basically doing it just for looks?
