    23" is my vote. that Hybrid tranny gives you a 3.55 final drive..... right?? If so I think the 23" will be good. Might even want to think about 22". Just a thought

    IT'S ALL UP TO THE AMOUNT OF POWER YOU ARE MAKING. Reeves is running 25" slicks on his now. My car, I'll more than likely opt back to the 24.5's. A 300whp car, run the 23.5's. Don't ever go back to the 22's. Unless they changed the compound, they are rocks.

    What are you running them on? Your GLHS? A 23" slick is all that you can fit under a Shelby Charger/GLHS without custom wheels and alot of rubbing.
