Could be 14's, could be 15's. It kind of depends on vehicle weight and how good you can drive it. Don't forget that if you're fat, it will slow you down as well. (more weight to move)

Don't even bother running at the track on 17's, it's pretty much pointless...

Get ahold of some light wheels and, depending on track condition and driver skillz, I'd say mid-high 14's certainly aren't out of question.

BTW, low miles on that unit!

yeah the 17''s really slow you down,

my best time stock was 15.7

and after i put on an iceman, vibrant, atx TB, and MPP PCM, i put 17''s on and ran a 16.3

Just throw them on for the track, you'll be much faster than with big rims, especially with so little power.

Yeah, lots of people run steelies at the track, no shame in it. lol

I'd rather run a decent time with steelies than be the slowest car at the track with rims.
