can't win a race because of spin. I'm lowered on eibach springs running 19 inch wheels and 4s tires 285s. I need some suggestions on my rear wheels. Thinking of going 18" with a drag tire or radial and just swap it out before I go racing then when I'm done put my other 19s on in the back. Any advice would be much appreciated. What wheels should I get for only the rear? What size tire for those wheels? What tire should I run? Should I even go 18" in the back? I race 2-3 times a month. So I would more then likely come home from work Friday change out my rear wheels by Sunday put my other wheels back on. Literally every race last week was me spinning to 60 mph then me chasing them down. I've tried to lower boost In 1st and 2nd. Tried not going full throttle until about 2nd but I still spin. Anyways thanks in advance for any advice. This is my first real "race car".
 
Lightweight 18's with some meats!

Get yourself the BMS Differential Support bracket, I have seen nothing but praises for it being able to cut traction loss down significantly to the point where I will be installing it on my AWD stinger tonight. its also only $200, so what's another couple more Benjamin's compared to that mod list in your signature?

Every time I see it mentioned either on here or on any of the Facebook groups its always been a positive response towards it. The install was pretty straight forward, besides the time it took to break the 4 diff bolts loose the entire thing took under 20 minutes to install. I was not able to get a test run or two in yet because I am doing some other stuff to the car at the same time and its still on the lift. I should be able to tonight though as its all pretty much ready to go back together.
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
This helped out a lot. Some mickey Thompsons.
