Default Best rear drag wheels for $300 to $600 per wheel

Hi guys, looking to see what rear wheels would be good for my c5. I've gotten into drag racing,so the all seasons and c6 grand sport replicas the car came with aren't cutting it. On a pretty loose budget of 300 to 600. What drag wheels and tires are everyone running?

Why not run oem 17x9.5 z06 wheels, paint or powdercoat them. They are strong. Ive seen 315/35/17s on them or if you got the gear or power 305/45/17.

either of the above are good options, you can also get welds within your budget unless you meant $300-$600 including tires... new tires will probably cost $500-$600 alone for a pair
