Take Myron's advice and turn your tires around once and a while. I turn my Hoosier radials around every 4 to 6 passes. I have always had better luck with wheels 1/2" to 1" wider than tread area. You can hook harder with more air and more stability. I never use screws. If you use narrower wheels you have to use lower air pressures to get the foot print right, then often need screws to keep them from slipping on the wheels. Since I went to wider wheels several years ago I have not needed screws. When I ran 9" radials 10" wheels were quicker.
