Just recently picked up this 2019 10 speed. Loving the car so far but having difficulty hooking on rolls. Should I pick these up? I do plan on doing bolt ons and tunes very soon. My brother has a camaro and thinks I should get a full drag pack but obviously these are way cheaper. If anyone ever ran a setup like this, can you include pictures? I know it might look a bit funny but gotta do what I gotta do for some traction. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/471547754755512/

What about these?

I would support the idea of a full set of real drag-racing wheels and tires. Those wheels are not Ford wheels, although the tires look decent.

I don't know anything about drag strip racing, but that sounds like a good first step. I would think real drag slicks would be best. A 2nd set of wheels and tires you take to the track.

If traction and budget are your main concerns, those look like they would hook nice, without knowing the tire brand or anything, see if they sell that wheel for the front so you can buy a front set in the future.

I just realize you said your doing power mods, I think the widest you can run in the rear is like a 325 tire, but very important component is the tire composition, that stock tire size sucks, but a good tire compound makes just as much difference, find out exactly what your needs are, street/track and then plan & research as much as you can before dropping big money, fitmentindustries.com has photos of many setups as well.
