U have to throttle it. However if you want car to hook from a dead stop with full throttle go with Nitto drag radials. I had them on a previous car w over 470 rwhp w a manual trans and 4.10 gearing and it they hook.

Your best bet on stock wheels is Nitto DR's 285'35'18.

Another options for tires are the Advan Sports.

The PSS's are probably the best overall tire. The Advan Sports seem to have a bit of a stiffer sidewall for hard cornering.

I went ahead and ordered a set of Advan Sports for my C63. Will let you guys know how they work out once I get them installed.
