Tires aren't catching from 1st to 2nd at all.. stupid question?
 

I just got a brand new clutch and flywheel put in my car, and I'm been practicing faster shifting now that my clutch doesn't slip. Problem is, my 1st to 2nd shift always causes my rear tires to break traction enough to go slightly sideways. I used to just chirp, is this happening because of the power added from my mods?

More importantly, what can I do to fix it? Let off the gas a bit?

wider tires. what do you currently have out back?

Tires make all the difference.

Post some time slips and lets see how that bad boy is running: https://my350z.com/forum/drag/233840-top-25-1-4-mile-times-for-tt-st-supercharger-nitrous-bolt-ons-stock.html

just switch out to DR's and you wont have to worry anymore.

I have Falken RT-615's.. thought they were better than stock. Did I screw that one up? (I didn't want to get DR's, I want some safety in the rain)

you drive in the rain? LOL

what size are the tires?

what size rims? how wide ar ethe tires?

I had the same problem for a little while...but then I put some 295's on the back and its all better :icon38:

I'm on stock '06 rims, so I couldn't go that wide. I'm blanking but I believe I put 265's on the rear.

why is that funny?

295's are serious! Did those run you like $450 a piece?

+1 on wider tires make all the difference.

because we are both in Socal and it doesnt rain much here.:icon22:

good lord, where do you buy tires from if you think 295's are that much?

^ lol... I don't know. I saw Michelin PS2 285/35/19 was like $400 already!

You can get Toyo's from the vendors on the forum for around 800 for all 4
