Looking to switch over to drag radials and need some feed back looking at the mickey thompson drag radials or the BFG drag radials . I currently have 275/35/17 on the rear and need more traction lol

I've had them all & IMO its a toss up. I like the hoosiers a lot but they're the widest I've had on the car so far 315/35/17. I also like the bfgs. none of them last very long.
drag radials are never going to be a good choice for a DD.

mickeys are horrible in the rain at highway speeds very dangerous.

^ what he said... if you are going to use them as your daily driver you cant beat a nitto drag radial. it's the only one with a 100 tread wear. all other drag radials have 0 tread wear. they last alot longer and are pretty decent in the rain if you get caught in it.

How much power does your car put down? These are the tires i have had experience with

Hoosiers are the best,but wont last as long and horrible in the rain
Mickey Thompson's not as good as the Hoosiers they last a little longer and there horrible in the rain as well
Nittos suck for traction they last allot longer and decent in the rain..Also note Nittos run a little smaller so you might want to go a tad bigger
