what do you guys think
what does your track times say

 

I have been thinking about picking up some drag radials to. So I will be watching his thread. All the research I have points to the BFGs being the better tire. You can check out the customer reviews at tirerack.com

 

Ive heard the BFGs hook better but are rated to last 1500miles and the Nittos last 15000miles or something like that. I say get the Nittos because they are a better bang for the buck.

 

See sig, that was on the Nittos

 

you don't even want to think about BFGs if it will ever see rain.

Nittos are good for me.

 

I have about 6,000 miles on my BFG's and they look great still. i have also drove in teh rain with them and no problems eather....

 

BFg's are BARE MINIMUM DOT. They're not really a radial lets face it.... Go with the MT Et Streets if you're thinking about it

The nitto is a radial. Bottom line

 

The BFG's are a radial, no question about their construction. I have put about 6000 on mine so far and they still look OK. They are not a good idea for highway drives (mine get hot at 30psi on an extended highway drive)

Since you are talking 60ft times and still being streetable they will fill the bill. In chevy high performance this month they did tests between the different tires and next to a full blown slick, they have very respectable times. They found the best pressure is 11-12 PSI, any lower and they shake at the top end. Of course on the street 28-30 pounds will definatly add life. They stick like glue in the corners IMO unlike bias ply tires. I can't compare the Nitto Drag radial to the BFG's, I'm sure they both will work well. They both have a treadwear rating of 000 which doesn't inspire long life but what the hell

 

the nittos actually have a rating of 100 not 000
