not the lines its a shitty front tire! use a pilot power or metzeler m3. if you put braided lines it will make it lock up worst.

well its a rolling burnout, we call it a smoke screen cause u cant see anyhing but smoke from behind, and i have a michilin (sp) power pilot on the front Im starting off at about 20 mph, and i feather the front brake and it either washboards yaknow jerks hard, or slides out from me within 10 ft

you could try lowering the pressure to around 20 or so in the front , and / or more revs . also what front end do u have ? i know with my 929 front its a bit more tricky than on a stock f4i front .

thats because they miss calculated, it wasnt a mechanical problem.

I got the same prob. My front tire locks up and slides about half the time I try to get them from a roll. I think I am not transforing(sp) my weight at the right time on the ones that dont work.
