hi i am running MT 22-8-15" and they are like **** 2,1sec 60fet

my time is 12,08@122mph

i have to order new slick and im going to try MH now but what size? 13" or 15"

24,5" or 26"

 

what you got for power and trany?

 

dont know what power i am making but the tranny is oem with lsd

 

How do you not know how much power you are making? Either way you should def run 13's. What is your setup consist of?

 

we only have one dyno here in iceland and it is broken heheh pice of **** island

Civic 91 the car weight 2000lbs
Cp pistons 9.1
eagle rods
comitic 0,51
gt35r turbo
3" exhaust

 

BOOST BY GEAR. i cut 1.8 60ft's with my 22x8x15 mt's.

 

I cut a 1.7 60ft with same size tire.
guess I got lucky

 

I'm gonna say your making some where in the 300s. the 23x8x13 or the 23x7.5x15 will work for you.

 

Did you experiment with different tire pressures?
What rpm are you launching at?
How much boost are you making off the line?
What engine management?
You said "oem" tranny...which one? (you didnt state what engine)
How was the track prep?

Alot of questions still need to be answered here. Often times, your slick size will not dictate a lowsy 60 ft, so dont be quick to say that they're "like ****", until you've gone thru all the variables. Give us more info, im willing to bet the problem is in your setup, and not the slick (unless they're COMPLETELY worn out).

 

yes i tryed 17psi dow to 7psi
im luching at 5k rps and making 5psi
im running megasquirt
b16a2 oem gearbox

i get 20psi in 6,2krpm

 

i've always seen great improvement buy going to a 13" wheel over a 15" on the smaller slick sizes. as exospeed said, the 23x8x13's are a great slick. i cut 1.7x's all day with 350whp and an open diff

 

I have the same question I own a 97 jrsc gsr civic hatch and want to know what size slicks I should get and what brand works best for you guys .I dont run at the track often but when I do I want a good set of slicks !!

 

i ran a 22" on my ls/vtec bolt on crx and ran 1.8 60ft and 13.3. make sure you do a burnout in 2nd to warm up the slicks. launch around 7k and make sure your slip the clutch. that did the trick for me. GL

 

Was that the first time you ran the 22's? And how was the track prep that day? How long of a burnout, and what gear?

 

ive just used slicks for the first time , not so easy to get good tires here in the UK . got my hands on a set of mickey thompson 22.8.15. running 396hp at the crank. and 60 ft was 1.9, didnt get much chance to change pressures , had them at 14psi.

not sure what size tyre i should be running for my power either ,alot of people had 13" at the track but ive got big brakes so wont fit.

 

too high of a tire pressure, you should drop it down to at least 10psi to as low as 8psi. dont go too low on that tire. they tend to look super flat and ride on the rim if too low of a tire pressure.

 

Just order M/H 24,5.8,5/13" :D :D

 

Good score dude, when you gonna test them?

 

what size brakes are you guys runnning with 13" wheels ? . im using 282mm discs and prelude calipers , really dont want to give them up.

 

I used to run 22" with 350whp ran 1.80 60' 12.00@121mph

 

they got shipped today to Iceland (europe) and il hobe il get them next week
