I'm not sure what your streets are like, but I can't get traction...period. I have ran tires from 255/60/16 all the way up to 295/50/15's and have always had a hell of a time with traction. The strip has bite for any kind of tire, thats if you know what your doing. If you ever go to the track and see some one do a burnout with a street tire, thats somebody who doesn't know what they are doing. A true street tire brings the oils in it to the surface of the tire as it spins and gets hotter, making it more greasy and spin even more (less traction). If you run street tires at the track, just rotate them once to get rocks and debris off them. Drag radials are a whole different thread.
