Default spin=no win

I have a hatch with alittle over 300hp. I have tried to mess with my tires and such to see if i can get the power to the ground but still seem to spin till 3rd gear. Im shooting in the dark with my settings as i have never done this before. Can you guys help me out and tell me where to start? Tips on tire press. strut settings, and camber would be nice. My setup is 205 azenis, tein s.s.andno sways

Get some BFG's or slicks. Or just practice practice and then practice some more. Don't expect to just go out and run good times with that power. Get some traction bars, drop the pressure to 18, make your rear suspension as stiff as possible.
