well have you ever seen a super street drag car? i wanted a large drag type tire but still have a 17" tall rim instead of a 10" tall rim that you mount drag slicks on and for my project wll i donno the specifics yet but i need some way to get the power to the ground and detemine the width of the rear end (thats why offset doesnt matter) and all other what not soo yea its just starting point but i figured they have a rim out there somewhere cause they make 335/35/R17 tires and thanks for the fast reply

They have wheels that sized for a reason... a reason you apparently have none of. First off... those cars (350Z, Supra, M3) can wear those big wheels in the rear because they're RWD. Those wheels only need to clear the rear 1/4 to work properly and wider wheels mean more traction surface... but in a FWD car... say putting 17x10 in the fronts, is not gonna work, unless you plan on not having the car turn. Hell... I don't even think it'll fit the rear... If you're doing it for the "look" value... well, that's your own taste... Some people like big chrome spinning wheels... but I guess so long as they feel "cool"...
