The stock car had very little tire spin

only a few hop up.
vortex cold air system and corsa exhaust, Fast lsxr 102mm intake, tune.

with 275mm tire in the front and rear 285mm .

Getting alot of tire spin 1st , 2 ,3 gears alot spin.

Can on the basic c6 in the rear I go wider? or is the front to wide?

swap to a better tire and that will help. The runflats are slick as hell especially cold from my experience
