why would one wants to run 20" slicks? I think 22" is already too small, I want to run 24" with 15" rims, more tire for grip, and higher mph.

Bigger tire would be slower MPH

M/T's.

Bigger rims equal slower mph because of the centrifugal force it takes to spin them compared to a smaller wheel.

so thats 2 against 3 . need 2 more to confirm that, my boys and a couple more folks been telling me that my 22" slicks are cutting my top speed, thats why my best time is 12.17. so I ran his 25" drag radials and best time was 13.3 so I guess I need to stick with my 22". my launch is always fucked up no matter which tires I run, so it all depends on my speed. I guess I need tp tell them they are wrong.

20" slicks = better gearing..........

14.85 NA, 13.09 ZEXed.

Went to 22x8x13's (Fowee) and car bogged off the line, too tall of a slick for MY combo.
