Im running BFGoodrich g-Force Super Sport A/S as my street tire right now, there some good tires but wheel spin is killing me. What are some good tires out there to help fight this for the street not the track?

what size is the tire/rim ?
i run falken azenis, the new 615K's are supposed to be stickier than the old model i have. but im upgrading soon. or some bridgestone potenzas might work too
i've heard great things about the dunlop direzza z1 star specs. alot of guys went from the azeni 615's to the dunlops for autox anyways.

I ran the potenzas on g8 gxp but the only thing with them it seems like they didn't last at all or maybe it was just the heavy foot/ burnout box at the track. They were some good tires though. What about the Kumho Ecsta XS? Thats what i was looking at maybe getting.

ive been looking into michelin pilot sport as+ for my cav for all around. then again i work at a tire shop and look at them all day..... no idea real world outside of reviews, but they have everything they need to do well, just not launching. bfg has a different version of the kdw series with a more traditional tread design in some sizes that may help as well they are classified nt or new tread design
Not sure if the general tire Exclaim UHP would be any good for you. My dad is running them on his BMW as well as a few friends (one with a turbo civic) and I plan on getting those tires next when my altimax's wear out. I have a set of 4 michelin sport cups (but in 15's) and they seem fairly good on the street but weren't great for drag racing and I think their tread wear is 80 so probably wouldn't take too long to wear out.
Any time you want a stickier tire for above 300hp, you are going to sacrifice treadwear. That's how the game goes. I used to wear a set of azenis out every year. But that's because I raced on them. Now i have a set of radials and can make a set of tires last two years. Even the new falkens I'm getting are only 200 treadwear but they will grip and last a while since I'm not racing on them.
