Drifting rims?

I know I've been dropping alot of questions, but it's only in an effort to get to the level that I can be helping to answer others' questions here.
Now, who here actively drifts? What type of rim/tire combo do you use? I'm confused about what to look for. On the rims, nothing too fancy, obviously, but they will have to be big enough to clear upsized rotors and coilovers (so stockers are out), and they should obviously be as light as possible, and able to hold some rubber in the front but not too much in the rear (right?).
For tires, I've heard that harder, higher treadwear tires are best, but I've also heard that they're prone to chunking and might give out before softer compounds that are more likely to retain their tread blocks. What about sidewall stiffness?
Just curious what yall are actually running. Thanx again.
