Okay then, for drifting you don't really need "max rubber". I would recommend trying 225/40 in the front with anywhere from 3 to 5 degrees of camber (huge spacers or extended FLCA with knuckles for more inner clearance and angle) and 235/40 in the rear since they're cheap (maybe 265 if you have an LS1 or something) with anywhere from 0 to 1 degree of camber. You really don't need big tires unless you have huge power. To give you an example, Daigo Saito has 1200hp and he only uses 265/35-18 front and rear. Basically, for drifting the "max rubber" idea doesn't really apply, but you can run big rear tires and crank up the psi for more smoke if you want, it just burns tires quicker and wastes money. Good for contests though.
