what slicks and rims do you use for your integra r that fit?
I have a 1998 type R that has koni coilovers and turbo. My car has trouble hooking with drage radials. I was told by one person not to heat them and by another to heat them up. Either way my car i know would preform better with slicks but i was told they might not fit since i have type R brakes and i have to use 15 inch wheels. I was curious if others have had this problem and what they did. My car runs on about 20psi and has 462whp. If you need any other info let me know what you want to know thanks. Also if you have advice for my drag ragials let me know they are 225 50 15 i believe

drag radials are fine, i got the same results heating mine like crazy as i did not doing any burnout at all. Youll need a 15" rim and you could probably just get a 22" or 23" slick and be plenty happy.

23 will be too short with ITR gearing. I used 15x7 Rota slipstreams for awhile and got 2 15x8 slips in a group buy on here. Go with 24.5x8.7x15 M&H. you will need to remove the splash gaurd and raise the car if it is lowered. I pulled consistant 1.6-1.7 60fts on those tires
I still have 2 15x7's if you are interested PM me about em. I have no use for them since I dont have 5 lug anymore
