Default stock 17's with DR'S

SO IM THINKING OF DOWN GRADING MY STOCK 20 TO SOME STOCK 17S BUT IN THE REAR I WANNA KEEP IT WITH SOME DR'S.. ANY ONE HAS A DAILY DRIVER ON DRAG RADIALS.. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS... THE ONLY REASON FOR THE DOWN GRADE WILL BE BECAUSE I DONT WANNA UPGRADE MY GEARS .. I RATHER WASTE THAT MONEY ON THE CAM OR A SST3600 STALL.. PLUS I ALREADY SPIN THIS HEAVY 20'S IF I STALL IS UP WITH THE BABY 3200 STALL.. ANY LINKS.. TIRE SIZES RECOMMENDATIONS... OR EVEN PICTURES NNBS AND NBS WITH 17 DR'S... THANKS FOR HELP

SST3600 and 28" tall m&h drag radials is my vote. I bet youd pick up a lot. You have a lot of rotating weight and not much torque down low.

I just changed my ss 20s to stock 17s with a 275/50 nitto nt450 up front and 295/45 m/t et street radial II. They hook good on the street I have 3200 stall and dynoed 350 to the wheels. Not a whole lot of hp but it was a night and day diff from 20s to 17s
