Q:
Ok, So I bought 6 slicks recently, and I dont have wheels for them. They are 13" DIA wheels that I need. I know there are LIBRA wheels that are 13's, but I dont wanna spend what it take to get a set of those. I just want something I can mount these tires on, and go to the track with. Anyone know of a cheaper alternative, or know of a car, that came with 13" and a 4x114.3 bolt pattern?

I know you can order the steel circle track type wheels from summit in just about any confige you need. Your probably not wanting steel wheels though.
Your probably going to do some ebay searching or check out some dime websites. I don't know if places like HRE, Fiske even make wheels that small anymore.

Dude you are gonna need bigger wheels.
I was running 14" slicks and I was spinning those off the line badly with anything over a 4000 rpm launch.
Try getting some el cheapo 15 inchers and sell the 13's to the torqueless HonDUH boys..

NO, I am using these for auto cross racing, not drag. I have drag radials for that, which never work well anyways. LOL.

I have his old set of 13X7 Auto X Rims with old Slicks on them. Currently I am in NJ, so I can't tell you what brand they were, but they actually had two different lug patterns drilled in the hub, (8 holes) one fit the Datsun, the other Mazda I believe. Anyway they were alloy five spokers, reeeeally light.
Should've asked when you saw him this weekend! LOL
