Losing traction in 1st with 285 Bridgeston S04
So after about 2500+ miles on my Sikky headers and Meisterschaft exhaust, it seemed as if my ECU is fully learned the mods. Now in 1st gear at WOT, I'm loosing traction at around 5k+ rpm. Traction control light flashing and all. I thought 285 Bridgestone S04 tires would be enough tires. I guess I might have to step up to 305 or get RE11 in the future

have the same problem with my 285 Pirelli corsa's. even after I get the tires heated by hard driving or burnout I still get some spin in first and a chirp into 2nd.

Did you warm up your tires? Also, S04's are not the greatest tire for drag grip.. you can lower your rear tire's PSI to see if it'll help but probably not much.
BTW I'm getting my 305's pretty soon, you can come by and drool over them

To be fair, your tires are like a 275 because your outside tread dont even touch the ground lol.
