Default slick size

ok i have a 1991 civic hatchback with a built ls. the motor is a b18a1 bored to 81.50mm, wiesco 11.5:1 pistons, eagle rods, golden eagle block guard, exospeed stage 3 race b18b1 head, port and polished, stainless steel valves, supertech valvesprings and retainers, brian crower stage 2 all motor cams, blox intake manifold, blox 70mm throttlebody, 310cc injectors, hytech try-y replica header, custom 3" intake w/ velocity stack,b16 cable tranny(very short gears), act xtreme pressure plate, act 4 puck unsprung race disc. the car made 200whp on motor, it also has zex dry kit on it. while tuning on a 100 shot it broke the traction bar, but at 5500rpm it had 326 ft lbs of torque. i have a full direct port kit going on in a week, and it will be 100 or 125 shot havent decided. im currently runing 22" m&h slicks, but need to go bigger. what size slicks should i get? car should be making around 320-340 whp on nitrous when i retune. take in to consideration, that next season i will be cahngin setups. and have a fully built b20vtec all motor. somewhere around 14.5:1-15:1 compression on itbs, that im currently putting together. so when i buy slicks i want them to be right for this motor, and the b20vtec.ive had people tell me 23" and others say 24.5". any opinons would help.
