I know from my track experiences and my friends experiences with DR's. My buddy has a 265/40 BFG DR on a stock 18" rim and it dead hooks in the middle of winter with a 4000rpm launch. In drag racing, tire compound is much more important than size hence the reason why my 8.5" wide Weld wheels + slicks are wayyyy better for hooking up than my 19 X 10.5" w/285's out back.

No company makes DR's in 19" for the reason mentioned above. You euither want good traction and some looks (18's) or so so traction and good looks-19" wheels.
