Thread: Slicks ???

I was wondering when buying slicks is it better to run a 13" rim or a 15" rim slick in say a 24.5" slick ?? just wondering

15 inch rim will be fine with a 24.5 inch slick.

I got 1.71 60 ft times with 15 inch rims and 24.5 inch slicks on NOS

I'm running 15" rims with 24.5" slicks.I'd say 15's are fine.

What rim is that on the car?
What is the size of the rim 15 x ? ?
What is the offset of the rim?
What is the weight of the rim?
What was the price per rim?

x2!

Those look like 15x8" 0ET wheels

These are just some ebay 15x8 sportmax with a 0 offset.I think they are 16lbs each.
I only bought 2 for my mt slicks.

So which is BETTER? I'm going to say 13". More sidewall for bite.

Dre, these are the same wheels I spoke to you about on the phone the other day. These wheels were on my xB.

Any room in there for big breaks? I would imagine not much.

Well, they at least clear NX2K brakes

I have about 1.5" of clearance from wheel well to NX2k caliper on my B14. 16" wheels, though.
