These cars have the crappiest IRS configuration for dealing with high power. If you want to not spin in first and second you have to really dial the power back. If you take it up to over around 550rw, 3rd gear is useless without race compound tires. Factory powerful cars have a more ideal control arm arrangement that doesnt camber in another 3 degrees when you floor it.

I think most of the traction issues can still be solved with a linear, slowed boost ramp-up and proper suspension set-up. Maybe switch the compound in the rear to a Toyo R888 or equivalent? If it were me and it was a drag event, I would even consider a positive camber setup for the rear. But either way, my car is just going to be a 500-550~ whp street car for myself, so it's nothing too competitive. |

My car is no turbo, but the centrifugal powerband really helps traction issues. I'm running stock re50's and first is the only constant issue when flat footing over 3500. Second gear is problematic in the cold and will spin after 5k. Normal driving is as docile as stock. Im thinking that some better rubber can fix most of it. You all and your turbos hit peak tq much lower and carry it to at least 6k before it starts dropping.

R888s in 305 30 19 I would spin through 3rd. Toyo TQ drag radial in 315/35/18 hook a little better. This is with like -1.0 or so baseline camber. I feel like the fresh Toyo R compound tires stop hooking so well after 2-3 weeks of daily driver duty.

RE-11s seem like the best balance - less noise, a bit longer lasting than the R888s, not quite as sticky but R888s lost their grip as they got old. SPL mid links have helped me keep the car straight even when it spins... able to maintain toe in spec even with zero camber.

I couldn't wait to get rid of my RE11s and my mileage from them was less than r888s due to constant spinning .
Glad I'm not the only one that feels like r888s harden up And loose their grip quickly. |

I'm running Nitto Invo's on mine, they are pretty decent for NA but don't think they will hold up to the extra power after turbo install, they are however much better than the RE11's, less road noise and much better in dry and also the wet.
not sure what I'll try next, I've also tried Pirelli p-zero Nero, stay the hell away from these LOL. |
How did you know Invo tire is better than RE11?
