Welcome to Drifting.com

First off, how much drifting experience have you had?

I say this because of the cost factor. Expect to get some dings in your drift car, rims included. Unless you're insanely safe in what you do, I would be hard pressed to spend a lot of money on the drifter. I wouldn't think the stock tires/wheels would be bad to start on, 225/55/R16.

Why go bigger? Just asking.
