Well, not a Prelude....but we've had great luck with 23" MH slicks on 15x7 Rota Slipstreams in the shop H22 hatch.
Previously I ran 22x8 MT's on 15x7 Slips....

Im not sure what brand the wheels are. I got them off somone on ht. the rims are 13's, they wont clear si calipers without spacers, so i have to use 5mm spacers. Havnt tried yet on vtec brakes, but i doubt they will clear.

Particular reason people use 13" slicks if they have the same circumfrence of 15's???

Aren't 24.5's what 400whp Turbo guys use???

Damn, I bet I could trap in 3rd on Nitrous with those.....
