Default 17" drag options??

I go to the strip every couple of weeks and am looking to get a pair of tyres specific, the problem i got is my big brakes, which i need at least 17" wheels for. I dont really want to loose the big brakes so im wondering if there is anything i can get for 17"s??
99 si BTW

Or should i just ditch the brakes?? if so, will 13" wheels go over standard sized brakes? and what wheels and tyres sizes would fit? thanks guys.

jordan i would have to say if your serious about drag then lose the big brakes. change out for some dx brakes which will clear 13 rims.

Or if you can change out for 99 si brakes which will clear 14 inch rims

remember some rims with differnt back spaceing will let you use different brakes like the 13 inch volk te37

I didn't see anywhere that you said you were looking for actual slicks. If not you can get BFG drag radials in 17x205x40 I believe. I might be off on the sidewall height but BFG does sell 17" drag radials because I have them on my car.
