Default wheels and tires for drifting

Hi forum,

wasn't sure if to open this on wheels and tires forum or here, but i guess more people with experience with this can be found in the sport forum... ;-)

I'm using good tires with 19 inch wheels on my 370Z, but would like to use it for drifting as well. so questions:

1. should i buy a set of 18 inch wheels for drifting? I'm actually thinking about buying 18 inchers for winter anyways...
2. which tires should i use for drifting? In my prev car (miata) i used to get used michelin energy tires (16 inch) that did great work, but here it's a whole different scale...
3. any other advice? Do you guys carry 2 wheels with you for drifting in the trunk? does it fit?

Thanks,

Roni
