24.5/8/15 MT slicks on 2 15 inch rims..my car is making 450whp and 330tq on 24psi..due to the 15 inch rim would i be more likely to break an axle? or not be able to spin the slicks?

 

Not neccessarily. It depends on how much sidewall you want to use. The 24.5" on a 15" rim is obviously going to have less sidewall then 24.5" 13" rim. At that power output, you may want to use the 13" rim/slick combo unless you can not due to brake parts. Even my 26" slicks on a 15" rim did not have a huge amount of sidewall crinkle.

thing is that i already bought the slicks and rims, got them brand new for 400 bucks so i thought it was a pretty good deal..
