You will need a 9.5" rim at minimum but I would run a 10". Those big tires will slow you down. I would run Nitto 555R's 245/45/17 on stock rims or wait till Hoosier comes out with a 225/45-17 or 245/45-17 Drag slicks.

I'm cutting low 1.6's on 245/40-18 Toyo T1R's at 20 PSI Rear and 23 Front. Stock turbo @ 376WHP
