Default Best slick/wheels for a 10sec turbo civic

Anyone seen a nice set of slicks for a 92 civic. I want something that looks nice and I could drive around on the street for some $$ races...

The car has gone a best of 10.6 (spinning) @ 138mph in the 1/4.

Also too what would be the best size slick?

Thanks

I would think you would want to keep some like that to track but if you care to risk it go ahead. I tried my 26's out on the streets and they felt real good. I would think with axle upgrade and that kind of power 24.5 to 26's would be awesome out of the whole on street. Good suspension plays a big factor in it as well.

John is the man, John has ALWAYS taken care of me! When I had a balancing problem with my Lenso/M&H combo he went out of his way to help me out. I will NEVER run ANY other brand of slick but M&H!!!

Lenso's are nice if you want to order something inexpensive.

Bogarts are nice too if you have the money.

you say they are inexpensive, if i were to buy them would i have to worry about the rims breaking or inexpensive meaning they are just heavier ?

I am calling bullshit on this retard. There is no way you have a honda that runs 10.6 @ 138mph in the 1/4 mile. If you have a car that fast and can't figure out what slicks to run on your own? Your a fricking idiot. I mean listen to you talking about street racing for money like it's the fast and the furious lol.

It's possible we ran 10.1 at 105 at pomona nhra final, but we had to shut it off due to no license anyhow, Bogart and m&M should do you fine. we ran 9s with them. I don't know about driving it on the street and racing for money though

I would roll a 10 second civic to race fools on the street. Jency does it up his way for sure. In my book thats a down *** racer and it pays for some of his racing im sure. You got to do what you got to do to get to the track when your poor.
