Good tires

Hey guys, I raced a charger today and lost, smh, because I couldn't get traction. Spun first, quickly shifted to second, kept spinning and hit a curb with my rear tire. I'm using ps4's, what do you guys recommend to use to get traction that isn't strictly a drag tire? I'm around 490 hp and a manual. I know r888's used to be good, are they still the best? I don't want to lose like that again lol.

I understand, but its well known ps4's are terrible for launching. So I can't practice without having the correct tire

The PS4S is only for roll racing, try Nitto 555RIIs in the rear instead if you want to launch from a dig.

Those Toyos whine like a monster truck all the time above 40 mph, which is tolerable if you don't mind, but I had to get rid of them, they went on my nerves unfortunately.
