ok, i know this is old but i would like some final advice.....

my motor rebuild is almost done and i would like to know if a set of dr'z in the rear is a bad idea? I know the stock is prone to but i curious. well, asking never hurt if the end result is about $2500.

so, wat do you think?
1. stock 10 bolt wth dr'z (nitto'z, toyo RA-1, or BFG)

2. stock 10 bolt with BFG'z KDW'z or kumho ecsta

of course, i plan on getting a harder girdle, and a set of LCA with brackets.

any suggestions?

You'll be fine on Nittos or BFG's, just don't goto ET drag radials without an upgrade. I didn't see if you car is a M6 or A4. A4's are pretty OK on 10 bolts, M6's are hard on them with a high RPM clutch dump.

Broke mine on the 2nd pass with worn out BFG drag radials (255/50 16's). This was with 340-350 rwhp and about a 2500-3000 launch with a Mcleod twin. It was not side stepped as mentioned by some, but was let out quickly with the throttle mashed at the same time.

I'm running 26-8.5x15 ET Drags (slicks) w/my 10 bolt. A4, 3.23's, Vig 3200 and no problems. WJ

thanks..........i dont think that ET'z would be for me but nittos for sure!!!

So, it safe to say that nitto'z on the a4 is ok?

Yes, by all means. But just remember, the game of life has NO guarantees.
