Clutch Slipping

Clutch Slipping
I just put on some new bbk control arms, last summer's 245/50/16's on stock pony rims, and new springs in the back. The car seems a little more sluggish than it did beforehand and the king cobra clutch actually slips with this combination. Is this to much tire? My car has a full exhaust, 3.55 rear end, underdrive pullies, aluminum driveshaft and of course the clutch so it is modified a little bit, so I can use the extra traction. Has anyone had any issues like this?

RE: Clutch Slipping
trust us. have u put a drag slick on there? if so you know what traction is. a stock mustang will spinn any street tire if the motor is in good running condation. if the clutch slips that means you need a new one, because with your mods your not making the power to slip a good clutch. i have 3.73 and half again the motor you have and my ford racing heavy duty clutch does not slip. its like the same as a stock clutch.

Well they were 225/55/16, the clutch was put in last summer and hasnt been abused and was babied until 500 miles in. But is there anyway that tires could of affected my gearing?
