Default Looking At New Wheels

Been posting more lately and so i thought i would ask everyones opinion on this subject. I was looking at new rims and tires and had a couple questions. #1 Size - I like to drive fast and all that good stuff so i heard if you go too big like 20" u might have a better chance or busting up your rims because they dont handle well. Then i thought about maybe 17"-18" sounds pretty good.
#2 Brands - I dont know really any good brands besides what ones they use on Unique Whips
#3 Tires - Mostly i hear about your pirelli's your nittos, your g-forces so whats a good tire to pick?

Thanks for the opinions guys.

20" don't look right to me, but if you want them go for it. I think the best range is 17" or 18", my opinion. Check out the vendors on this site for wheels, plenty to choose from. Personally I love Bullitt wheels. Pirellis are awsome, I wish I had some. I think they are rated at 200mph. Go with what you want and start posting pics.
