Tips for better traction?
You actually think a stickier compound tire is more likely to pick up nails and screws and cause a puncture? Rocks and sand will stick, yes. Being more likely to pick up nails and screws and result in flats, sounds like some internet jargon. Is 614 rwhp your peak hp or the power you make at the rpm you launch on the street to dead hook at?
614 WAS my peak RWHP (I just changed my setup and a new tune). With the old combo (614 RWHP), I could launch it on the street without heating up the drag radials and it would dead hook in 1st gear.

Actually some of the LT1s came with 110 MPH cluster because they did not have Z-rated tires. It was mostly the 1994 Convertibles and the 1994 Pontiac Trans Am (non GT package). However, I don't remember the width. By the way, guys, I plan on buying new wheels so don't limit size to just THESE wheels.
