this sounds like an odd size....but for allmotor streetable track car....i'd like to see 2 sizes. 13x8x23 and a real odd ball 14x8x22. the first being allmotor pro car that uses a jdm itr type of gearing and the last being a slick that has some sidewall but still is 14" and fits over those 10.x" honda brake rotors without a spacer.

 

contact me as soon as possible when you get the 27 inch slicks in stock any 28 or 29

 

Hey Wil...been meaning to call/write to you but been busy lately. Are you back yet to send me my rims/slicks?

Thanks

 

hi viren,
if you need the 27x9x15 or the 27x8x15 let me know
they are available and I can get them on the next pick up.
if you can call the order line at 818-355-6156 so we can have your business info/tax ID in file, i can get you the pricing on that one ASAP.

Lip
Also working on recommending the 14" slicks for the beginners out there who cant step up to the 13" slicks yet.
thanks for the feedback.
Wil

call me a retard but what do those demensions refeer to? i have never been into slicks nor have i ever needed them so i am not familiar with them. i know one has to be width one hight bot whats the other one? thnx for any info

 

Yeah, call me dumb too but Ive never had a car that really needed slicks(although thats gonna change really soon). I was wondering what size slicks should I use with a 93 CX hatch? I dont even have a clue as to what will fit with spacers/without etc. Any help from the pros will be awesome..

 

slick/tire dimensions may be worded in different orders, so you just have to figure out which is which.

on a 22x8x13:
22" is the height of the tire,
8" is the width,
13" is the rim diameter it will fit on.

it can also be 8x22x13 or other mixed up ways. but you just have to kinda figure that out, based on the numbers. most slicks are 13" and 15", there are some 14" and also 17" for those skinny fronts on Dragsters.

I'll give an overview of the most common slick sizes from the smallest(ones who dont puch as much HP) to the street cars that push out 200-300HP.

if your just starting out, let's say basic bolt on's on your Integra or SOHC civic.
The most common slick sizes are:
20x8x14 or 20x6x14
these are good for stock motors(exception of really low HP motors like the HF CRX) to mildly modified motors with bolt ons.

next step is: 22x8x13, 22x8x15,
if your pushing out 140+ hp to the wheels, these sizes would be good. too low wheel HP wont be able to push these wheels.
average max HP these slicks will hold are up to 250hp. you can still use it at 250-275hp, but its much easier to spin and wont hook up as good as it should.
- for more traction, some bump up their 22x8x13 to 9" wide by going with 22x9x13

Cars pushing out 250+ HP, mostly turbo cars step up to 24.5x8.5x13, 25x8x13 and similar sizes in that range.

Once you get past 300HP, there are much more slick sizes to choose from and it all depends on your setup.
These are the basic sizes out there that most import racers use.


As far as RIM clearance:
Race only wheels such as BOGART racing wheels
http://www.exospeed.com/dragwheels.htm
are made for diff. applications. As far as HONDA/ACURA.
Ther are ones that are made for civics brakes without ABS and dont require spacers.
the other type has a built in spacer which are for Integra brakes or Civics with ABS.

cheaper alternative to BOGART wheels are Lenso VPD drag wheels. those don't require spacers and will fit integra and civic brakes with no problems.

Aftermarket BRakes/Calipers require 15" rims. 13" racing wheels wont clear the most upgraded rotors/calipers.

Hope this helps to some of the beginners out there. Of course, some racers may have their different opinions on slick size applications, but this is just a brief overview for the beginners.

^^ thnx for the info. good to no.

 

exo, what do you recomend for a 00 EK hb with ITR 5 lug conversion with around 450-500 whp? I dont want to have to cut my fenders to clear.

Thanks, Jason

 

hey Jason,
You'd have to go with a 15" Bogart wheel for the ITR brake/lug pattern.

the smallest tire you can fit on there as far as 15" M&H's are the
7.5 x 23 x 15
according to Earl and Mike/ninseccrx, they are able to push the car with the 22's

the 23x7.5 should be good but its preffered that you step up to a tire that has a wider patch. there is a 24x 9.2x15 that would be perfect for you.
the 24"tall slick would fit the fenders and the 9.2 wide is good for traction.

Tallest size i've seen on a stock fender car are 24.5", but i could be wrong, some one may have fit a 25".

MT is about to ship out 22x8x13 and are tooling up for 22.8x8x15's

yes I typed that correctly.

 

odd sizes never bothered me. i do like that last combo of 22.8x8x15. i just sold my 22x9.5x13's. those suckers grabbed hard.

 

does M&H have 15x8x22? since that what i have currently with bogarts do to the 5 lug ... or which would be the best on bogarts 15x8 all motor ...?

 

spoon1: the smallest at this point for M&H are the 23x7.5x15 for the 15"rim.
you should be able to push those..

M/T tech even said their 22x8x15 are having a hard time hooking.

BTW 195/55/15 tires are 23" OD, so gearing would remain stock like.

 

8/22/15 mt suck , thatswhy ,
hey exo i was looking at the M&H 24x8.5x15 or 24.5? i forget off hand but with bogarts. , how much for each wheel and tire and do I need spacers to get them on?
Btw its a 2001 Itr.

 

m/t have nice traction , just looking for options ...

 

ITR206: for a 24.5x8.5x15 wheel mounted on 15"x8 bogarts for ITR lug pattern, includes built in spacers(integra brakes) and special lug nuts.
check your IM for the price.
thanks.
