Default 15x8 or 15x10

Planning on gettin some prostars, hopefully used. Ive seen alot of people with 8s and 10s, i understand 10 leaves a bigger footprint. What are some addvantages and disadvantages to both?

Dont quote me, but from what I'm told, tires are what breaks your car. If you put too much tire on your car, and don't have it set up to take the traction, somethings going to give...usually the tranny or rearend. So if you have it set to take it, use the 10's.

I like 10" rims, but there are plenty of sub-10 second cars on 15x8's.

I like the look of the 10's better, but you have to grind more off the calipers.
