Thanks I actually got them from discount lol , my friend is a store manager and was doing a group buy on these for our forum dirt cheap! So I was the first to get them and test them out , I don't spin what so ever , dead hooks! On the track and tested them out on the street and no spinning . I honestly think anyone who wants a drag radial should get these , even think better then MT just My Opinion .

Looks like your car is pretty damn low. It's gonna be tough for you to pull some 1.5s without taking out some weight and doing some more suspension work. What's your launch technique?

Badass picture is right! Your car is getting it done!

I thought you were giving the camera the finger at first.
