Whats the best tire/suspension combo for max traction on the cheap?
I have a 383 motor with 3.73 gears in the rear & I have no traction at all! Whats the best tire/suspension combo for the least amount money? I also need to put my car on a diet of at least 200lbs. What can be removed from the car. The back seat is not needed!

go with the biggest tires possible, get some 15 inch wheels cause tires will be cheaper, most 275/60/15s will run you about $60 a peice, as for the weight, throw out the spare tire, A/C, smog crap, back seat, thats all i can think of right now.
