Default Looking for some insight for slick and rim size...

I know that each individual setup is different, and that there are a lot of varibles that play a part in your final trap speed 60ft ect ect... So basically Im looking for someone who has a pretty good idea on what would work well with my setup...

Heres what Im running

91 CRX B20B turbo'd
Stock suspension
LS tranny

My best time so far is 13.6@ 105mph with a 2.36 60ft.... on street tires @ 16psi. I hit rev limter in second cause my tach was all over the place... I know that there is quite a bit more left in the car, and I think slicks will help a lot in my case....

My budeget is like $400 bucks for rims and tires... I have a set of stock steelies here @ the house but I dont know which slick would work the best with them or even if they are even worth using. Any insight or recomendation is greatly appriciated....

thanks for the help

Blaze

Anyone? Im currently looking @ some 20x8x14 slicks and rims.... Will they get me into the 12s? are they to small, tall not wide enough? Im lookin for any help/direction here, links ect. I did a search and didnt come up with much...

I'd look into the M/T 22x8x15 on some Fat 5's or any other OEM 15x6+ wheel. If you can afford Lenso's than go w/ them and a M&H 22x8. I think 23" will be to tall for you right now and 20" may be to short(may run out of RPM on the top end.)
