Default traction..

im sure this has been covered but i couldnt find anything. I had a hard time with wheel traction coming off of third gear, the car just bounced right and left(its how it felt), i even thought i was going to veer onto the right. Im planning on getting 15's maybe even 16's soon, and equip them with sticky fat tires. Which one would make it worse or better? Any suggestions is appreciated.

Only in 3rd or first and second also? not sure if you are talking about street tires or slicks. If you are runing high boost with street tires, you won't get traction no matter what you do.

I would check all the bushings to see if they are in good condition and check the alignment.

Major torque steer issue? Do you have an LSD? Even with an LSD, there is still some weird feeling of power transfer from side to size but it's easily managed... Not like the stock Diffs... where u really gots to hang on...
