Above 300whp especially up there your gonna start spinning the smaller slicks through 1st and 2nd gear, above 400whp possibly even 3rd gear as well so a 24.5X8-9X13-15 will do just right, many people run them with no problems at all.
Im gonna be around 500whp or so and im gonna give my 22" slicks a shot just to see what happens and how they grip. Again rev limiter launches, just like before. It was actually pretty good, For not heating them up like a nice 2nd gear burnout they spun just a tad off the launch then ripped through 1st very quickly, 1.71 for my first time out is not bad on them, i feel i could have gotten a low 1.6 had i done a nice 2nd gear burnout to really heat them up. And that was beating out some of the awd cars off the line.
