Default SLICKS ON 15" HONDA STEELIES?
Ok so im looking to get slicks for a set of steelies i have. I just dont know what size will work. Was reading somewhere that the M H 7.5/23.0-15 will work and the Mickey Thompson 22x8 15 will work. Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Why not get something better than a set of steelies to put slicks on?

This.

and correct me if I'm wrong, but a 15" steelie weighs almost 20lbs, a 15" slip weighs about 12lbs.

So once again....

steel is always going to be heavier than an aluminum wheel of the same size. (generally speaking)

Lensos are awesome for drag wheels. and you probably want a smaller wheel to be honest with you...
