Wheel choice for 99 camaro
So looking for input. Have a 99 z with ls6 intake. Pp throttle body, Slp lid. Pace setter long tubes. 3" ory with a v force muffler. Muffler came on the car. Moser 9 with tru track with 4.10s. Currently I have 17x9 zr1 wheels. Would I be goodto go with some 275 drag radicals option 2 is 18x11 c6 wheels with 315 35 18. I do plan on doing more rear suspension upgrades like pan hard bar, lower control arms, adjustable tunnel mount torque arm. I've heard taller sidewall is better. Kind of a noob in the whole drag racing thing. I do plan on doing heads and cam eventually but did the rear first cause in my eyes what's the point of more power if you can't hook. I have m6 also. Thanks

Does it hook good at the track too. Not a daily driver but I do like to drive it on the street. I have all seasons on it now. Took it to the track and spun first gear on the stock 10 bolt. Now with the 4.10 I would spin a lot more

Just got the car and have not been to the track yet. Apparently the previous owner ran an 11.7 with them, so I know it's very capable. I had these same tires on my Mustang and the best I could muster was a 1.8 60ft on stock suspension. The best way I can describe these tires is that they hook consistently pretty good on the street, and are inconsistent at the track. I have the stock 10 bolt as well but with a Detroit Truetrack upgrade. Even with my HCI combo and 4.10's, they do pretty good on the street for what they are
