I running Goodyear Eagle RS-A All seasons in the rear on OEM 19's. No matter what I did, I couldn't get any better than a 2.1 60 ft. The RS-A's get pretty hard once worn down which makes it hard to get a good 60 with. The only thing I didn't do was heat them up.
I got a set of Z wheels for free that I'm gonna use for drag radials.
Free wheels FTW.

FWIW...on my Pontiac Grand Prix I ran a 13.4@102mph with 1.9 60ft times ( on regular street tires...FWD FTW! LOL ).
Get those 60ft times down to 2.0 or so and you should do low 13's.

Mess with the Tire PSI, and preload the clutch/ modulate the gas and clutch to make sure you let the clutch out easy at high RPM, try 4k-5k, and dont worry about R/T, it doesnt effect your QT Mile.
Try 20psi and work your way down to 17psi. GL!
And yes, 2.0 or 1.9 is possible! With Drag Radials 1.8 maybe lower! Just get the weight down, and work on the launch!
