I am currently in the middle of a search for a good tire/wheel set up (square) for my 2019 Eco boost. I've posted a similar question in the past but I have finally came across a set up I think would be good, but now I would like to get some opinions on it from people who are experienced in wheels/tires.

keep in mind that I am going for a car build that can be a monster both on the track and on the streets, but primarily a track set up. these are my four questions I would like to get answered as well as your opinions.

1. I've been told that a smaller/more lightweight wheel reduces my rotational mass which is good for acceleration. but I would also like to get a wider wheel in order to fit a wider tire for more traction, but wouldn't that just keep the same amount of rotational mass if not add more ?

2. what would be a good tire to use that I can have on the track and on the street I've been taking a look at the Micky Thompson ET Street S/S but I've also heard good things about Nittos and Toyos.

3. I've been told that for the track you would like more wheel in order to corner and turn better, but on the straights more tire would be a better choice, what sizing for wheel/tire would I need for a good mixture of both ?.

4. what would be good measurements for the wheels/tires for what i am going for here.

thank you.

You've got to be kidding.
