not everyone drifts competitively, and if you dont, and just simply do it for fun or pleasure, then smaller tires are cheaper, easier, and require less work and speed. in competitions they use bigger tires with badder engines because they need the speed. and they can afford tons of sets of tires.

ok this is not taking sidewall into the factor but think about it:

275/25.4=10.83in. wide on a 10.5in. wheel, now sidewall will play a large factor but not it wont relly be stretched..it will be ptryy much straight...kinda like all the ricers who rock 17x7 with a 205/40 tire...itd look like that most likely
