    Drag wheel options?

    Can a 13" wheel fit around the brakes?

    Also if anyone wants to post up what they run just for comparison sake

    13 inch wheel will not fit, I tried some 13x10 Dc2 integra slicks. They were weld drag wheels, and it did not clear the brake caliper. I don't know about any other wheel.

      13" wouldn't really be that great for drag anyway. 14" and 15" are more common/cheaper slick sizes, and smaller wheels just mean the tire weighs more (if keeping the same outer diameter).

        A wide, lightweight 15" wheel is pretty much your best bet. Address further traction issues with suspension upgrades and modulated power delivery (feathering the clutch, or boost by gear ECU tuning.)

          There are many more options for 13's than 14's. The point is to have the most sidewall possible





          Both these cars are on 13's and run damn good on them

            Pretty sure the smallest you can run is a 14 due to the brake caliper.

              Indeed, but 13s will not fit on your car... so advice was given taking that fact into consideration.

              Good luck with your project.

                  14's fit, I think you could get 13's to fit with a smaller caliper.

                  It looks like ek civics can run 13's, so use whatever caliper they run on the front. Iirc, the caliper on the front of my cb7 and dc2 are the same, so maybe the em1/ek coupe has the same size, maybe that particular wheel is thin enough to fit.
                  sold! But here's my build thread for those interested.

                      Just so you're aware. Those wheels have a 45 degree conical seat. Stock is 60 degrees.

                            Then why did you invade a completely off-topic thread in which to ask that question?
