I am having a brain farting contest with my friend and this cloud came up. Lots of people have aftermarket rims on their max's, usually 17's & up. Would it be very benificial to to keep a stock set(or smaller) rim with some street/drag slicks on them and only change the front ones. Kindof like people used to do back in the 80's with their trucks? Here is how I figure it, smaller wheel=faster 1/4 mile. slanted car resist's / prevents as much weight transfer to the back and resulting in better managment of power/weight. Is my thinking flawed??

 

i would say in theory yes but your also forgetting your not gonna be going mach 1 for it to be in effect, get me

 

Naaa... what I am saying is this. When the car accelerates, the weight transfer is towards the back, with the back raised up a little higher than the front it would make it more difficult for the weight to move that way, keeping more of it on the front wheels. Make sense now?

 

Maybe if the back end was competely stiffened up to not sit down at all it might help slightly.
