what does it take to get 60's this low.

i have a 92 integra with very close to 300whp(b16 turbo). In the past i have ran 22 8 15 mickey thiompson's and was thinking about swithching to something 24". What rim size are you guys running 24" slicks on??

also should i ditch my neuspeed race springs for a set of coiliovers in order to raise the rear end so it doesnt squat so hard on the launch. or just do the bumstop trick.

let me know your guys setups!!!

I suggest 22x8x13 and burning the 22x8x15 MT's, they suck that bad!

hondaswaper

i would get the 24.5x8s if i were you

g2turbo

the 22 8 13 would give more sidewall, is that correct?

what would be that advantage/disadvantage of a 22" vs. a 24"

For LS tranny, Id stay with the 22's until you put out more HP. For B16 tranny, you could step up to 24.5's.

g2turbo

so with my ls tranny i should stay with 22"tall and switch to a 13" rim instead of a 15" rim for more sidewall.

the ultimate goal would be low 12 high 11's. 115-118 mph is what i want!!!!

I have ran 11.8's in my best friends Turbo LS about two years back. His car had a very simple setup. Stock shocks with skunk coilovers and some 24.5's in the front. I would cut consistent 1.71 - 1.75 60fts in that thing. We never got the car running 100% but were trapping around 118 mph on an average. The car had a stock diff and the camber was about -3 degrees off. If you got the power to do it, you can run low 1.7's all day long. The funny thing is that the car would spin through all the way through 1st, 2nd and part of 3rd. The car weighed around 2500 lbs with driver. If you got the power and the driving skill, anything is possible.

it still wouldnt hook with the 24.5's?
howd they fit in the fenders? need any mods?
i am getting 24.5x8.5x15 from M&H for this year becuase the MT 22x8x15 do suck , not enough sidewall . i delat with thme for 2 seasons and they are ****.
but i cant get any smaller than 15's over my breaks without ceonverting to 4 lug ,and i dont wanna have to do that

We had stock ls rotors and calipers on there. We were using the 13 inch lenso with the 24.5 inch slick. We had to raise the car a bit with the skunk coilovers, but it wasn't a big issue.

ok so the overall rolling diameter will be the same for my application then . . . .i have skunks too . so i should be able to clear them . cool . thanks.

Evil DOHC

I am not sure if you can clear the 5 lug with lenso's. I believe that 13 inche lenso's won't fit on ITR brakes, but correct me if I am wrong.

they wont . im not asking that though, im talking about the rolling diamter of the slick ./ .im still gonna run the 15's, just the bigger slick on the 15s. i just wanted to make sure the 24.5 diameter fit the wells.

g2turbo

i just want to pick the right slick the first time.

24.5 *8* 13 seems to be a good size.

13" rims do clear a stock rotor right?

i didnt like the 22 8 15's cause they spun regardless!


what will be the better for my ls tranny
300-350 whp

24's on a 13 or 15 inch wheel??
thanks guys

I would def shoot for the lenso's in a 13 inch diameter. U can pick them up for around $200 for both.
