When I used to drag race my Supra we used to run the 16 inch RX-7 rims, the smaller rim will actually change out the gearing in favor of torque and while you'll lose some top end due to a smaller diameter the bottom end response and better 60-foot times were a marked improvement which translated into faster times.
