13" Vs 15" slicks
ok I have a set of lenso wheels 13"
they don't fit over my brakes.
I will be running a 23inch tall tire and I was wondering is there any bonuses to using a 13" slick over a 15 inch on.
I can go ahead and spend a bunch of money and buy all new brake setup to make the 13" wheels work or just buy a wheel and tire combo in 15s.
in case you want to know.

i had itr brakes for a while and used 15 x 8 bogarts with 24.5's
now since went gsr, i have 13 x 8 bogarts.
the main difference is 2" more sidewall to wrinkle.
i still went 10's on the 15"s.

so would you say your 60 foot where better?
I do understand the 2 inch more sidewall flex just wondering how noticeable it was.

its a tough call because the car now leaves too soft, and i havent really gotten back at it. my best 60' was a 1.68 spinning. (with the 15"s)
so you changed brakes so you could use a 13" wheel?
did you go all stock brakes?
I was hoping to get some sort of caliper and rotor setup that I could still use on the street but loose a little weight.
haven't found anything that 13s would clear.
