    So I'm bringing some love back to my first car to ever show up in my config pack. And to do that my car needs some better tires.
    The problem is that im running Dragger tires because they can handle the power, but i have to sacrifice steering for it. Does anybody have any recommendations for a rim that looks good on the barstow but can handle the power?

    If you want to use a stage 4 supercharger, the only viable tires are the drag radials.
    With a stage 2 I guess I would recommend any high profile tire with good grip coef (the increased sidewall size will allow the tire to flex under power and "absorb" the torque) as they tend to be better with high powered cars. Or just go batshit crazy and put race 12's in the back (Like the clockwise wheels)

    So after throwing on some stx 245/60r15's it seems to turn better but with a lot of rubber burning do you happen to know anything better? or perhaps a tuning solution? By far the hardest to make a config out of.
