Default Yet another slick question

Ok guys the setup b18 turbo, GSR trany open diff, 2050 weight with driver, making about 450WHP. I have a set of 13 lenso wheels. looking at either a 24.5X8x13 or a 24.5X9X13 but I am concerned with the fitment of the 9.0 slick as well as the added pounding the drive Axles and the diff will take.
any thoughts?

the 9's will rub when you turn sharp. What axles are you running? I have enjo stg 7 in my integra and stg 3 in my wifes civic with the 24.5x9x13 slicks and have not broken any parts yet(knock on wood).

9's might be a little harsh on your stock axles. i had great success with 8 inch wide slicks with a similiar setup. Id go with a set of M&H 25x8x13's

BTW, if you have your heart set on running 9's, you could get wheel spacers to prevent rubing issues.
