Default Australian crx trying to crack a 10

hey guys, im up for a new set of slicks, iv been thinking ov goin for a set of m&h 25x8.7x13 on a set of lenso 13x7.5 wheels. im currently using MT 26x8.5x15 on my B16a turbo crx and ran a bet of 11.10 @ 132.50mph (1.86 60ft).
its turning the tires hard out of the hole (hence the 60ft times) if i use less than 7500 rpm at the start line it bogs a bit
i run koni rear shocks with 800pound springs, spax front shocks 250pound springs-with limiting straps(loaded), custom traction bar 5.5psi tire pressure.
would the 25x8.7x13 M&H tire be better for me????...... would love to run high 1.6 60ft!!!!

I cannot answer your question mate, but you did leave out what tranny you are using.

MPH is good enough for 10's. Are you using a 2-step to build boost of the line to help you launch the car

Put your tire pressure at 10 psi or try using 24 inch slicks.
