[QUOTE="clinton2003, post: 16030441, member: 144769"] hooking on the street with a short sidewall is extremely tough. even at the track in more optimal traction, its very tough to hook on 20's. if you want to give your car the best chance, get an 18" tire setup, and go with a 295/45 or 305/45r18 to give you some sidewall and tire choice. like has been said the short sidewall of the 20's make it rather difficult. if you look how a full slick or pro radial type tire works, you can look at a dragster. watch how the tire wraps up and then springs forward. the sidewall takes the shock of the power and buffers it to the ground. basically like the difference from dumping the clutch, to letting it out fairly quickly... to get the car to hook on 20's will take some extensive fine tuning to the car. adjustable shocks up front, out back, adjustable control arms up top, down low. figuring out of angles, and then lots of testing... Its a process. [/QUOTE]
