Some advice please...
Ive been thinking about rims forever now and i want to get them now that i have the money. But here is the problem, I cant decide on the size. I really love the look of the 20/19 combo's on the C5's, they make the car look as if its a race car/exotic. But with my future mods low profile tires turn to dust. So ive been thinking of going with the ZO7 rims and putting nitto dr's on the rear to harness the power. If i take someone out in my car i want it to get up and go and plant them deep deeeeep in there seat! I ve been in many cars where they have alot of hp but when they get on it all it does is spin til 60 or so then it pulls nice.
I geuss my main worry is could i get decent traction with a high performance 20" tire with 480+rwhp? the answer is no but i just want something. What would be the best tire to go with on a 20" rim for accel?

Forgot to mention the width.....300 series is the only tire i am going with, a 245 20 will not work, thats the highest the kdw will go... O well i save my money on the large rims and buy the 18's and use the rest for some mods...
