Slick sizing and wheel backspacing
 

Im getting ready to order some M&H slicks and Diamond wheels for my CRX.Setup is LS/Vtec 3-350whp and a LS cable tranny.Not quite sure on best size to run as the LS gearing is kinda lame so keeping them short would be nice.Also anybody have some input on best backspacing for wheels?Clearing the massize stock front brakes on the CRX isnt really a concern.

I have 24.5x9.0x13 on my EG which will eventually make it onto my EF. I will need different rim for the EF Probaby because I got 10.3" Brakes on her.

These are Aero Rims 8"Wide with a 3" Backspace. Wishing I got a 4-5" but they fit. I plan on swapping fenders to run at the track. There is no motor in her right now so thats why it looks like they fit!

Well im pretty sure Im gonna run a 23x8x13 slick but the wheel backspacing is got me at a loss.I run stock EF brakes so i guess I only have to worry about is clearance going inward.Im waiting to hear from Diamond wheels on how long it takes to get some wheels but Im thinking I better order these asap.By the way your traction bars are great. :y

8 inch wheel, 25mm offset, 5" backspacing

Thanks!!!

I was going to go with Diamonds!! But I got the Aeros from a guy on here for 50.00 for both.

Get Lenso VPD's. They fit without wheel spacers! 13x7.5

Re: Slick sizing and wheel backspacing
 

That would be me, I didnt like the back spacing on it either so I offed them for what I had in them. Im still unsure about backspacing but I think I might save up for lensos, they seem to be popular at the tracks around here. Anyone know exactly what they are? I know they are 13x7.5s not 8 wide, but what about the offset or backspacing?

Re: Slick sizing and wheel backspacing
 

i heard 25mm offset? All i know is that they are LIGHT and i use mine without spacers and long studs (sans headache)

Perfect.Mista Bone always comes through with the straight goods :6

I guess maybe I should just order the 24.5 and then i wont need bigger down the road.
