are they a waste of time/money, or will they really help out launches and 1-2 powershifts?

Big waste of time on street tires. They'll only shock your street tires harder and make them spin easier. If you want better traction, get drag racing oriented tires [patriot]

I don't know. I was able to spin my wheels through 3rd with my 4.10's before my Global West LCA's. After I put them on I can't seem to get them to spin through 2nd. I feel a lot more bite. but that is just my car.

I just put them in last night...OMG!!! They make the car handle SO much better...

But..I have Nitto 555 Extreme 275's also...so traction already wasnt that bad.

Lemme check out how complicated the IRS system is...if it's not too bad, we'll install em for you. Shops charge 80/hr for labor...we'll charge 20. PM me if you're interested. Late
