Traction
So what do u guys do to help get some traction? I have a 2wd sss.
Also could I fit some 305/50/20s on the stock wheels for the back? (thinking this could help a little.) with out any issues, and not to much tire buldge. From my understanding it is a 8.5 inch rim.

How are your new tires working for ya?
CHP did a nice test on various tires on the stock rims They ran some 305/50 and some stock sizes. The 305 BFG's did very well however BFG stated that if they were on a wider rim, they would do even better.
I would suggest CalTracs, maybe some spring clamps, shocks made for launching (50/50's or maybe 60/40's), stickier tires and a lighter foot.
