Questions for those off the stock rubber

Aside from running on DRs when you switched to aftermarket how much easier/better did the car launch and what brand/tire size are you running now?

I'll let you know what my 60fts are after this sunday. But I switched to 26x10.5x16 mt et streets and they hook like crazy. I quick slip the clutch at 4500rpms and it doesn't spin, just grip and go.
