I personally have a ---- of a time in 1-2 for traction on the original Azenis

Ive got maybe 300hp on 15psi in this car (88 crx)

I need to invest in some slicks

Would 13"s even clear your breaks? I know they won't fit my car.

I think I'll go for some BFG drag radials for now. I've looked at buying some 15X7 steelies (custom made for like 40 bucks). I'll probably do that, then buy some 22" slicks next spring.

Same car, same night, same pressure. Not that all road race tires are going to outperform and drag radials, but this "terrible advice" worked for me.

I witnessed this and ---- my pants. you didnt mention that they were the ADVAn a032r 195/50/13, yes 195!

24.5" slicks are too big for under 300 hp.. i had some MT's on my civic and i ran slower times than with my 15" falken's.
i had my silcks mounted on. 13" honda stealies and they cleared my 94 si hatch but i dont think they will clear integra brakes.

i'm currently running some BFG's & love them.. but you guys talkin about the price of those lenso's with the slicks makes me ancy.. where are u guys finding these prises on teh lenso's with MT's

If i can get a good price on them, i'd be willing to sell you my HX wheels & 5mm spacers with plenty of tread left on the BFG's for a good price.
