    Does it spin 1 wheel?? If so then your diff is probably worn out. Rebuild the center or get a spool if burnouts float your boat.

    Just give the transmission a service.
    When I was driving my dads Ford Faimont Ghia (Now wrecked cause of me), the wheels wouldnt spin at all. Gave it a transmission service (New oil and filter) and then it spun. It was only a single spinner though...

    ok this would be the dumbest question out. the idea is not to spin the wheels.

    but to answer why - the tyres you are running are very wide compared to stock. this will equal more grip. also running 19's the bigger the rim the more power you need to turn them.

    i dont see a problem with the fact you cant spin the wheels. i wish i had the same problem. atleast i could get a good launch.

    If the car is auto its just the irs, the lower the car gets the more pressure there is to brake traction!
