What you want is SENSIBLE sized wheels - i.e. 12s or 20s are both going to look quite stupid on an AE92. Within the range of sensible (15-17 in my opinion), then choose tyres that come close to the rolling diameter of what's on the tyre placard - you can either measure, work out, or look up in a tyre brochure to find out what size your tyres are. For the sake of performance, you want the LIGHTEST wheel/tyre combo - i.e. no rolling-mirror chromies.
Then again, maybe the whole diameter thing has some truth. Maybe that's why drag cars to a burnout - to reduce the diameter of the tyre
