From what I have heard low 17s are in order but I have never owned a V-6. Couple of tips that I know of. Just do a quick dry hop with the tires intead of useing the bleach box. You don't want the water getting into the treads mnaking you spin off the line. Don't go in way heavy get rid of all unnessesary wieght, as in going with only a 1/4 tank of fuel. Thats all I can think of off hand.
