where do i go next?

just ran my new setup friday and saturday. 383 and a glide. the car weighed in at 3350. on motor it ran 10.60@128 1.55 60ft the converter is setup for 300 kit so yea its a pig.. turned the gas on saturday, on a 100 kit it went 10.02@135.5 still only 1.499 60ft with .2 delay on the nitrous. went up to a 150 kit best i could manage was a 9.86@139.5 had to run .6 delay on the gas to make the car hook only a 1.56 60ft.... obviously there is alot more in it even on this small kit.i know im in need of new tires, im switching from my 295s (30" tall") to the new 275x tires by mt. (28") ive got stock springs all around 90/10 up front bmr kmember and aarms, jegster tq arm, umi adjustable lowers, relo brackets set on the bottom hole. and a umi rear drag bar. on the old set up the car went a 1.36 60ft with the old 3speed. but i know im in a different power level now so its gonna take more to make it hook.... where do i go from here? dropping to the 28" tire i need to lower the car. different springs? different tq arm? settings on the relo brackets? what do i do next to make it hook? im planning on running my 250 pills in it and shooting to go 9.20 @ around 148-150 in the winter. the car makes power i just need to put it to the ground.... help!

28x10.5 m/t stiff slicks should help those traction issues, especially without double adjustable shocks out back for tuning

trying to stay with a radial. lots more relativly competitive radial tire classes. i would think the new 3754x should be near the same. you think tire is all it is?
