Default Procharger and bigger tires/wheels?

I was just wondering how many people switched there tires and wheels once they got their procharger. I am thinking about getting one, but I want to see if I need to make the necessary investment to get 19s or not or whether the stock performance tires and wheels will be fine.

i'm not trying to bash anyone or anything but i'm just curious as to why everyone wants to go bigger in diameter with the wheels? wouldn't 18s with just a bigger track be sufficient. it seems 19 would add more rotational weight for the axles to spin. just a question..

18's will give you less wt., more performance if that is your goal compared to 19". I think the ATI SC will make you want to get some wider rubber on those back tires. I got 295's on right now. I always planned my wheel tire set up for 400hp at the crank.
