For the track you would be better off with the 16s.

My 16's 60'ft was 2.311 I had crap traction...if you wanna run a race tire then your good. But for street 17's and up with Z rated tire should be suffice up to 400RWHP any more hp and it really doesnt matter lol

I ran decent with my 18's. Cut a 2.06XXX. Not the greatest wheel to run racing, but noting wrong with it.
