Traction with boost

It seems like the biggest problem with the supercharged max is traction. 1st gear when floored has no traction really at all. How are the rest of you getting traction? Right now the my car has some ssr competiton wheels at 12lbs. I plan on getting 18x8 heavier wheels to help. Will lsd even help with that much power?

You're fooling yourself if you think heavier wheels are going to give you more traction. Wheels don't affect traction, tires do.
