where can i get slicks? new/used...

[Sin'sVr4]

i havent the slightest idea where to get some. anyone know where to get used ones? I know they are out there, just no idea where to look and what they cost? I really dont have the $$ to spend $250+ per tire for new....

oh and what size wheel do i need for them to fit?

[wingnut]

i have a set of 275/35/18 Hankook comp tires on gold Rota 18 x 9.5 +20mm P45's...are you looking for some wheels too, or just the rubber?!?

if you visit nasaforums or scca forums, you can pick up used slicks for pretty cheap to play around with.

Look around for a set of 15'' rota slips. No spacers in the rear, and i think i had a 20 or 22mm spacer up front to clear my stock brakes. The best part is they only weigh a little over 30 pounds a piece with Hoosier QTP's, so you save a ton of weight. Alos running a taller tire will keep you in your power longer, especially with the gearing on the 3S's.

Search around on EvoM and other DSM/Evo forums theres usually pairs of 15's and 16's with tires for sale for a good price.

It also looks totally badass with 15's when your cruising around town.

Austins hoosiers are 26 in tall and listed 9.5 wide by 15 in rims. The 9.5 is section width but the tread is 8in wide.
Go with at least the 26x9.5x15 DOT slicks or full out slicks, dont mess with less than that, its not worth it.

[Austin@STM]

Yes there is a big difference between drag slicks and road racing slicks

[Sin'sVr4]

J, if i can get those for $750 with rims im in...i think i have mine sold. will know tommorrow

yeah he probably should have clarified what he was looking for. launching with RR slicks is asking for a boomed driveline.
