Drag wheels and tires

Hi forum folks. Looking for the best set up for my 2014 2SS. Looking for rear drag wheel and tire combo. running stock rear end and 6 speed manual trans. Tried race star 92 17" wheels and they won't clear the Brembo brakes. Does anyone make an 18" x 11 wheel? would appreciate any feedback on what the best set up would be. Radial or slicks? won't be driving this combo on the street. Making just under 700 HP on E85. Thanks for your help.

Forgestar f-14 17’s . 18’s front skinny’s they clear my calipers . Running 305/45/17 MT street et R’s fronts are 28x6 MT sportsman’s .

Had to tie back e brake cable , they looked like they wouldnt rub but ended up getting alittle chaffed so I tied them back ..

Night and day difference in traction coming from 20’s to 17’s in the rear ..

Couldn’t get traction at all when I hit the skinny pedal with my stock rims , had bfg’s comp 2 A , not to sticky if a tire but I immediately jumped to my 17’s and they hook!

Almost made it not as fun as sliding all over the place lol
