Track Day Drifting - Wheels

[Wozza]

Alright lads n ladies,

Right, i'm getting a set of wheels just for track days/ attempting to drift in mondello etc...
Does it really matter on width of rear wheels? Is 8.5" width on back enough?
Cheers in advance for any comments.

What car have you? The wider/bigger the wheel the harder it'll be to spin em.
big may not be best...

RX7.. FD...
So 8.5 will do the job nicely...

8.5j will be fine its more tire width you need to look into...the wider the tire the more power your gona need for them to break traction...i run a 235/40/18 on my sil runnin standard ecu an iv no probs breakin traction

Ah it's grand...
They have their issues with rebuilds etc although enjoying it at mo.
I went with a single turbo conversion etc.. sitting at 300hp on standard injectors... when I upgrade injectors etc over to uk for a map, I should see the 400+ mark..
