As the title says. I'm having traction problems and I'm running tires that are around 50% worn. Should I slap new tires on a couple of days before the start of the season ?

New or used tires ?

That depends on the new tires. New tires (of the same brand/type) will have just a little less traction due to the tread depth. If the old tires are dried out, they will provide less traction though. If available, BFG, or Nitto drag radials are good choices.
