I thank the 18 s alone MAY cause some problems by them self as they have short side wall and the runflats alone may cause problems and when you add the two togather then you have two strikes against you

Slicks. LOL, Really drag Radials or a better (softer tire) will help. The shocks will help at the strip but not much on the street. Mount the battery in the rear take weight off the frt etc. Frame connectors and a bar will tie the car chassis together and make it work more efficent.

1st gear in my car is still a waste with all the above mods. I walk it out of the hole and have it shift into second then nail it. Thats on the street. At the track on slicks its much better.
