With our cars it's not so much the tires when we're running 16 second ETs, it's the suspension. A good aftermarket torque arm and some LCAs should help you plant better. Regardless of what tire your car is wearing. Remember, a 5.0 Stang with it's quad-shock suspension will plant real hard, regardless of the tire it's wearing.
