Default Recommend Slick Size for >200whp & <230whp

What's the optimum wheel/slick combo set-up for a SC'd GSR over 200whp & under 230whp...

I'm planning to get 14" civic hx wheels but what slick size. Is that a good combo?
What about 15" wheels/slicks...

Was gonna get 13" civic vx but it won't fit...help

22X8x15 might be a decent size.... mount them on some TE-37s or something, or Rotas and you'll have a nice sleep setup.

OT:

What's up kobe 8!

Looking at our similiar posts from 'Hostboard'. I guess we are both looking to get some 22's at about the same time.

What track are you gonna be running at?

I'm still a lil twisted on what to get, but I'm leaning towards the 13's cause I want the lensos.

I need to put some time into my car, but I hope to be set by mid January. And see what she can still do.

Lenso 13x7.5 with M&H 22x8x13 runs about $550 mounted
or Bogart Drag on Fly star 13x8 with the same slicks $$835 mounted with lugs

or any 15x7 rim with 22x8x15 slicks

those are the proper sizes for your HP.
