I just put new tires and flares on my v8 914 . It still spins the tires effortlessly. I'm now running 245 50 16s, and 225 50 16's up front. Brakes and 930 axles are next.

The rear looks way too high. Did you corner balance the car recently?
If not, drop the rear and get it balanced 50/50. That should help a bit with getting you more grip. On my car, i don't use 1st gear anymore. I take off in 2nd. I can still lay down 30 feet of rubber but i'm also running generic 225 street tires. Stickier tires will make a big difference!
