Thats probably because your tires are new now, so they have more grip and the car can't overcome the friction between the tires and road with the new tires. With the old tires, much less tread otherwise why would you get new tires? Less tread = less grip = less friction = easier burnouts.

The reason for tread is to prevent hydroplaning. Performance tires usually have very little tread and alot of surface area.

You can do a burnout in most anything if you try hard enough
