traction problem

i lowered my car, now iam regrettin it abit, if i jsut put the stock back springs in, will that help me hook up? softer bigger springs only in the back! i knwo the car is guna be jacked up in the back, but wil this help out my traction problem or no?
i have big sway bars and little ones, ws6, normal sized camaro bars, and 6 cylinder sway bars, which ones do i need to use! my car jsut spins!


also why is it that barely any of my tires leave any marks on the roads! is it simply because i havent stayed in teh same spot letting them warm up enough to make black? to i have cheap tires, or do i not have enough horsepower!

I say relocation brackets and new tires. Since they are not leaving black marks that means they are a hard compound tire which is bad for traction. Use your biggest sway bars, LCA relocations, and new tires and you should be just fine. If you do tht and you are still spinning like mad come back and ask for more help!

With a lowered car an adjustable panhard bar is also a good idea.
