O.K. if i was to take to buy some BFG Drag Radials were could i pick them up from?

Or should i just stick with the Nitto's 555R?

The Nitto's are around 170 or so which is going to be light on my wallet :shrug:


Need to know by tomorrow....help :thumbsup:

If they're for track ONLY, I'd say go with the BFGs. If you're gonna drive on them, go with the Nittos.

BFGs are much stickier, but they wear much faster, and are more expensive, as you already know.

well you've already got the 17's on the car. i'd say mount the 18" rears on the back, mount some 275/40R17 bfg (160 at discount tire direct) on 2 of the 17's, and stick them in the trunk or back seat until you get to the track. broke7's (i think it was him anyway) been doing pretty well w/ the stock size bfg dr.

I've seen the BFG DR's on a cobra and by the looks they seem to have about 1/2 the life span compared to the Nittos.
If your gonna go to the track alot get the Bfg's they seem way stickyer
even for street racing they hook better then the nitto DR but they won't last as long.
