22x8x13 will be good for ur setup....this size is really good up to almost any pwr, as this size has lead Mike Laskey to a 9 second pass
I would recomend 20" slicks. The reason being is that my friend has a similar setup with 185hp 121tq in a 91 hatch. He was running 13.2 all day long on the 20". We went to Sears point recently and he ran 13.3 & 13.4 with a little more HP than the 13.2 runs on 22" slicks this time (also better track conditions). He also has NOS and run's a 12.6 on those 20" slicks. You need at least 135 ft lbs of tq to run those 22" slicks unless you have a 4.785 or ATS final drive then I would run the 22" slicks. Hope the info helps.

i also recommend 20x8x14in mt slicks.. they are great for anything under 200whp..
i used the 22x8x15... they worked well...
i'd go with the 22x8x13. your setup is perfect for that size and you wont have to bump up slick size when you get more HP.

i dont think i will ever go over 200whp probably not even over 185 so you think the 22x8x13 would still be the best bet for me? the 20x8x14 may be too small for my set up?
you might spin the 20" too easily. thats my opinion, I've used many sizes of slicks and I believe the 22x8x13 is a good enough size for that setup.
I was always running a 20x14x8 on my all motor CRX single cam. was only pushing about 140HP to the wheels the most.
and I was always hesitant in running a 22x8x13 but when I did, I was still running the same MPH but was able to get better 60fts.
and I was running way less HP than you are.
Go with the 22x8 at least.
either or, I do carry both if you are interested.
