Default What size slicks work best for you?

Hey I'm just wondering what size slicks work best for you guys. Heres my setup.....

96' DX Hatchback
98' B18C1
Skunk2 IM
CTR IC
DC 4-1 Header
ACT Maxx Extrem w/4-Puck
00' SI Tranny
98' JDM ITR ECU
NGK Plug Wires
Prothane Motor Mount Inserts
Skunk2 Coilovers m/Tokiko Blue Struts

My best times on these slicks....

20x6x14.....13.29 with a 1.8 60'
20x8x14.....13.62 with a 2.0 60'
22x8x15.....13.43 with a 1.9 60'

All runs are on race gas 110-120, and timing at about 18-20 degrees

The bigger slicks I have been using the most I just can't get my 60' time back down to a 1.8. I only hit 13.2 and 1.8 once with the the baby slicks but I know the time is right because they all match up, 60', 1/8 mile, and 1/4 mile.

Especially like to hear from you guys with a GSR in an EK, thanks!

You need 22x8x13's with your GSR motor.

WHY did the 20x8x14's not hook for you????? or did you get the 6" wide and 8" wide numbers mixed up?
