Well, the smaller the rim size the more sidewall you can have on the tire and more flex it will allow. Most get a 15'' rim and the widths will vary but you can fir a 10'' slick on a 8'' rim or wider.

If you are planning on mounting a good tire on your car then I would recommend going with a 26x11.5x16 MT Steet ET.
Just remember whenever you run a sticky tire you run a chance of blowing up your rearend.
