[dark98cobra]

Looking in to buying some drag radials and wanted to see which one do you guys perfer?

I've got bfg drag radials 275/50/15. They stick pretty good

I like the Nt05r's and Mickeys. Both hook awesome. I tend to prefer the Nittos tho, I got more life out of them.

ET Streets baby.

Only drag radial I run.

Mickey thompson is the only tire ill ever run again.
They hook better then any tire ive used.. ive used bfgs and nitto mt all the wY

I have a set of m&h race masters and I love them so far..

Mickeys always seem to be a safe bet, I know multiple guys with high hp cars running ET streets and they love them. A buddy of mine runs M&H'S on his 365rwhp 3valve with 4.30 gears and loves them. I personally am going with ET streets when I buy tires this winter. But if you just want a tire that will give decent traction/wear, and don't plan on racing a lot. You could get away with a set of Nitto 555 dr's. The nt05r's will hook a little better but wear a little faster from what I've gathered. Still not as fast as an Mt M&H or Hoosier though.

I always ran Nittos and ,315/35/17,on my street wheels, went with the toyo tq this time and its garbage.

I got 555r's due to the fact that the other tires are made of softer material which is great for hooking but not for tread life. If you want to hook hard, M/T. If you want to hook decent and till get good life out of your tires 555r's.

Thanks for all the replys guys. I have a extra set of wheels and just wanted to mount some drag radials to use for the track only.

 

[NVRL8TE]

If that's the case, go slicks!

 

[NVRL8TE]

Bu if you do go drag radial, again I highly recommend MT ET Streets, they like ALOT of heat.

Nitto 555r Ftw

For track use and best traction you are going to be ok with Goodyear, Hoosier, M&H or M/T.
