Default launching an s2K

Ive heard the only rpm u can launch a s2000 is at like 6000 to let the tires slip alittle but the rear diff gets fucked up when u doo it everytime. How about if u get thinner and cheaper tires so that u can slip the tires more at a lower rpm and not put as much stress on the rear. Also im thinking a clutch would also help so u can slip it more. what do u guys think cause i can switch the tires back and forth if i want the better stock tires it wont bother me

You can drop and S2K under VTEC and it will still hit 13's.
