I'm assuming your car is automatic...right? God, I'd like to get some new tires--my car is not even fast anymore since I got 3.55s, as all it does is spin.

My car wont spin much at all, just a little chirp with 245/50/16 on the back, even with 3.73s... my car chirps more on the shift from 2nd to 3rd than it does at launch

Wow! I was thinking of getting a good set of 235s pretty soon. I'm hoping these will help a little bit. Right now, it spins all through first with anything more than 1/3 throttle, and if I shift hard and floor it, it burns most of the way through second. It's getting annoying.

On the bottle, I was spinning all the way through second and half of thrid with my street tires. They were pointless. I haven't tried the bottle with the new DRs though. Will be finding out Thursday!
