Default 18x12 vs 17x12... help me choose!!!

which is the better setup???

18x12 with 315 30 bfg drags??? or 17x12 with 315 35 bfg drags??? this is for the street and track only on the weekends so tire wear is not really a problem.

will 17x12 fit on an f-body? or do you have a vette? Why not try and shoehorn in a 345 tire?

315's are really too small for a 12" wide wheel. If you are going to run a 12" wide tire you should put 345's on there. Otherwise I'd suggest some 17x11 w/315/35 bfg drags.
