Truckaddict Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Well going in a few hours to see how the ole 5.3 can do. For the most part it spins like crazy if i floor it from a stop... Would it be best to slowly get on it or to just spin and hope for the best? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are gonna warm the tires up, DO NOT go through the water box, street tires + water box + short burn out = slimy tires that will not grip. Dropping the air pressure in street tires is gonna cause traction issues as well IMO....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On street tires you only want to do a quick tire sping to clean the threads off.. if they get to hot they once again loose grip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
