Tire help.

Ok so i have a 12 ss and a 13 boss. I auto-x once a month. The ss i awesome in the grip department. We have some suspension mods coming later to help a little with handling. The tire question is more related to the boss tho. (Ford forums suck!!) question is if i go from a factory stagger using a tire like pirelli, to a squared set up of a tire like bfg rivals or full on race slicks. Will going just a little bit smaller hurt the tire so bad that it would not be worth it? My factory rears are a 295/??-19 and i can find stock gt wheels in 18 and 17 all day long pretty cheap but they are a little bit width restrictive. So i guess im wondering what the opinion is if i was to try say an 18x8 ish wheel with either a bfg rival or full race slick do you guys think it would stick and handle better than stock wheels with summer tires such as pirelli p-zeros?
