18" drag radials? doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose? i suppose i just think if you are halfway serious about getting good times on the track, you'd be buying drag radials for your 15" (or close to) size wheels that are going to be lighter and have less rotating mass....

trust me run them and it wont matter how big they are...they work

...and most people dont have enuff horsepower to the wheel to HONESTLY make reference to less rotational mass to matter...if we cant get out of 200 HP stock then we fit the bill as well....if I had teh wheels I would do it...right now I am looking for the same tires in 225/45/17 for mine so I can match and stick...but they are on natl backorder.

The less HP (well actually torque but they are dependent upon eachother) you have the MORE of a difference a lighter wheel will make. You've got it backwards. The more power you have the less it matters.
