Got a set 22 by 8 by 15 and want a know how u guys heat them up?? Im racing on sat for first time with slicks!! ANd how long do u heat them up??? Thanks!!
 
I don't heat mine up cause I have a stock diff, it would probably only spin one tire and that would be useless. Try doing a burnout say for 10-15 seconds in water and have someone tell you if both tires spin.
 
I wouldn't run slicks with an open differential. I would go with an LSD and some sticky street tires before slicks and see if that helps.

If you insist, I would just do a burnout until you see the first bit of smoke, go for about 3-5 more seconds and call it good.

There's nothing wrong with running slicks on my car...with a stock differential. I have absolutely no torque steer, no wheel hop, and no spinning. You can't find anything wrong with that.

I just wouldn't do a burn out, everyone should already know that "one-wheel peels" are not a good thing for your diff or traction.
