Am having traction problems with my big block B-body,,,,,,, I am leaving two nice long black strips of rubber on the pavement, no bounce or spring wind-up, just no bite,,,,,what is my best bet for street legal tires, have about 10.5 inches on the ground, and like the gearing and tire heigth, what's next ,,,,,,cheater slicks?

I can blow my tires off at will even crusing in 3rd gear but at the track I hook well. My car even after a burn out on the street still doesn`t hook like it does at a prepped track.....no comparison. I`m loving my hoosier 29x13.5 qtp`s and they hook better and more consistently than ANY tire I`ve ever tested hands down.

I've never had any tire that could hook on the street.

My car has gone 11.17@121 on BFG drag radials. Just black tracks them on the street.

I sure am hoping that what I am hearing is what will happen in my case as well,,,,the tires that I have on are hankook h101, and are 265/50/15, I can go taller, but am at the max on width, and would like to stay at the heigth I am at, the tires are new, and am at least going to burn off the tread that is on them before I replace them, possibly with the ETs unless I hear of something better
