So what is the general consensus on wheel size? I know most people are going with 6"-8" wheel combo over the 8"-10". Is this a track by track decision or are most guys finding that the 6-8 combo is best overall on all tracks?
what's the verdict on wheels size??

Weight.
Rolling Resistance.
Aero Drag.
6 and 8s win.
I think that you will find everything between 6-8" wheels and 8-10" wheels working for individuals. There are even more variables with tire choice. I like the compromise of 7" and 9" wheels.
I got "skool't" the other day at Rd A
by JR runnin' 6's and 8's into the low 1:20's.
I could not get temps into my 8's and 10's, and ran :23's.
Brandon as mentioned has been into the :20's w/ 7's and 9's.
The lap record is held by a narrow track car on 6's and 8's - 1:21.4
The smaller cars look "right" on the 6's and 8's, but the other B cars come across as somewhat under-tired, but lap times from ARRC (in cool weather, btw, a factor I believe) would seem to prove otherwise.
Dang, man
Didn't mean to leave out my buddy Keith Roberts, the other and 3rd B car in attendance.
The Phoenix has risen in Atlanta - AGAIN!
