Default Doing a track set up help

Well i'm going to be doing alot of track events with my s2000.... and i am looking into either 16's or 17's i was just wondering what the best tire sizes would be for my app. i will probly be running the ra-1's as i loved them on my wrx. But i want to run the largest i can run with zero rubbing issues.
thanks.

you will want to run 16s probably then, RA1's have less then ideal sizes for 17" app, although alot of the track guys have made it work. You can run 225/245 with a bigger front bar on 16's. You will get way better responses in Racing and Competition, alot of S2000s that track use this tire.
