315 nitto nt555r vs. 275 BF goodrich t/a drag radial.. maybe m/t et street
i was told that the nitto runs small enough to get a 315 on the stock rim but my buddy on his cobra was able to lift the front wheels on the t/a. but that is only in a 275. i love the way the fat tire looks on the ws6 but if there really is no difference in tread life/hooking ability i'll go with what looks best. but if the bfg really out performs the nitto than thats all that matters i suppose.
how does the MT e/t street compare. i know it probably wears really easy though..

When they say nittos run small, they arent talking 30mm which is the biggest you want to run, which is a 285. If the car is your daily driver, go with nittos. If your car isnt going to the track much, get nittos. If you want to buy tires every 5k, less if you burnout a lot, get the BFGs.
I just bought 305.35.18 nittos, their diameter looks to be more towards a 300 its still bigger than my 295 bfgs.

well i was told that a 315 nitto nt555r will fit on the 9" rim. and they dont make it in like a 305 or 295....only 275 or 315.
so i mean what now.... 275 nitto or 275 bfg t/a.
or will the 315 fit. im still contimplating the mickey thompson et street.
