what are the options out there to get traction on the street. i already know about caltracs but i don't think they will work with regular street tires. been looking around for a drag radial / sportsman pros that wrinkle but can't find the size i need. looking for something to fit on the stock rim that's no taller than 30" and no shorter than 29" give me yall opinions and suggestions on what i should do. thanks... lance

Well on the street you are just **** out of luck. All you can do it get the stickiest tire you can find and do the cal tracs but if you got the hp to spin the tires then there really isnt anything you can do about it.
Thats why I love my 4wd, with one touch of a button I have traction

since it's cooled off here, my truck has really woken up. i have zero traction with my stock wheels w/ 255/70/16's. put my 20's w/ 275/45/20's back on thinking the traction would improve. WRONG. damn thing feels like i my stock wheels. and both sets of tires are almost new.
