Well everyone was giving me shit not runnin wide enough wheels.So i thought well ive got the 17x8 in the shed i could run all front or rear.
It was just a question sorry but its how i learn and understand concepts.
Anyway decided im running 13 and 14 on rear 175s

6 and 7 inch rims are fine if you dont have a 4age, your going to have to realise that there are better ways of spending your money, to have a car you can attempt to slide in an enjoyable range of scenarios youll need 80-100kw at the motor in a ke. That combined with somewhat decently upgraded suspension. You can spent all day carrying on about this rim with this tyre etc but at the end of the day with an open diff and no power your not drifting, your sliding, never mind power sliding.

Fair enough its how you learn etc. but good is a short word, doesnt need the os taken out of it. you start shortening words your start shortening tempers. People arnt going to want to help someone who deliberately spells incorrectly. Nothing is cheap and labor free in regards to fun times with a car.

For a minimum setup i would run 14x7 wheels or 15x7's nothing skinnier.

For tyres go 185/60/14's or 195/50/15's.

I dont care about wheels im sure they will do me just fine The car how it sits at the moment has a locked diff heavy duty rear shocks stiffer rear leafs, stiff front springs/shocks.sigma lcas 25mm spacers extra heavy duty clutch a cam and slight headwork Soundeadining removed aswell as bumpers no rear interior. I just wanna get out there and have a go for now.
Im sorry for the pepole im pissing off i just wanted ideas sorry.

I run 14x6.5 front with 185/60/14s and 13x6/6.5/7 rears with varying tyre sizes.
Before i ran 14x8.5 up front with the same tyres and i didnt notice any difference with tire flex. I think my car would have to be setup perfect and i be a lot more skilled before i could notice little things like that.

And when your learning your not going to know mid drift weather your 13s are flexing, or your shocks feel a bit shit or your falling out the stock seat

yeah just get out and have a go, good luck with it all
