I always see Hondas with their small but wide front rims with slicks at the drag strip.
I was wondering what are good brands of drag rims for hondas and/or where can i get a pair?

Small light ones. There are tons of wheel companies out there. Just don't kill your axles running a setup like that.

Slicks would

Tons of grip on stock axles = broken axles. Normally the tires break loose from launching hard, if you run slicks that energy can't be wasted at the tires. The stress is then put primarily on the axles.

make sure to preload and youll be fine. i run 15x7 kosei k1 rims on my 5th gen and have had no problems with breaking stock axles.

damn I feel like an idiot, but what is preloading and how do you do it.

Basically riding the clutch out. Not just dumping everything to the tires.
