  • What is the problem?

    I have a stock 02 firebird w/ 17" ta wheels and 275 tires

    if i ever try to do a burnout the tires will start to move then they will catch and it feels like the whole rear end of my car is going to fall apart.
    It shakes so bad
    what do i need to do to fix this problem?
    thanks

    Boxed or tubular LCA's (lower control arms) for the rear will help to eliminate that wheel hop. They're stronger than the stamped stock pieces.

        your wheels and tires are too big for starters. Thats a lot of rolling resistence and a lot of contact area, your probably getting wheel hop because of it

            if your going to do LCa's then I would also sugest relocation brakets.
