Okay guys, my all-motor H22A is done, and I'm running high 13s with normal 205/50/15 Kumhos 712s launching at 2200RPM.
I'm making almost 210WHP and around 160 FT-LBS of TORQUE.

As of right now, I shift into 4th gear and go on for another 500RPM or so before ending the quarter mile.

I'm now ready to switch to slicks to see if I can hit very low 13s or high 12s.

What size you guys think I should get?
Should I get bigger slicks like 24 or 24.5 slicks so I can end the 1/4 mile redlining 3rd gear, or should I go down to 22 inch slicks so I can get close to redlining in 4th gear?

the 22's are gonne be short.
you won't be able to launch very high, probably 5500 rpm or so.
i say 24.5's would do the job much better, but if you don't feel like breaking stuff (axles)
m&h does make a 23x8.0x13 now that might work.

 

what car is the H in?

 

did you not read the title... it says what size slicks on a civic

 

is it a hatch or a coupe.

 

and if your running high 13's thats really bad wiht 210 whp. i konw that 232 whp runs a ll.8 on a hatch, thast why im asking is it a coupe or hatch, but eihter wya it should be a lil lower. and the 11.8 was on slicks too but even on street tires you shoudn't hit high 13's. i dont know

Thats what i was thinking also, it should be lower times, especially when your making that much whp.

It's in a coupe, Honda Civic EX Coupe, w/ sunroof, and no chassis lightening, stock hood, stock body, street tires, launching at around 2200RPM. If I launch any higher, I spin out.

 

get some good tires, its worth it.

Street Tires - I'm getting 2.2 60' Times. I'm sure with slicks, I should be in the 1.8s. Just wondering what size slicks. I picked up some 22x8x15. Hopefully, it'll be enough meat for me.
