wheel selection input (drag pack)

Doing research, I've noticed people almost always run an 11" wide rear wheel on wide body cars. Would a 10" wide s77 look goofy with a 26" drag radial on it?

Unless you are in the 550-600 or more rwhp range, a 9.5 x 17 wheel performs better. There are no bonus points on a timeslip for appearance. Goofy is running the wrong tire/wheel for the best performance.
