like the title says how well will a 245/40/18 BFG drag radial hold 5-600rwhp on the street?

Doubtful. Just not enough rubber contacting the road.

Absolutely not, you will boil them even in second gear. You're going to need a better tire on a smaller diameter rim if you want to hook those kinds of numbers.

believe me im already there,driving on ice.Im waiting on the boost controller to up the boost too which will make things even worse.i cant find wheels that i like that everyone doesnt have that are wide enough.

you need a 50 series sidewall for traction and a 275 width at least for both.

how bout a 335 nitto? im in the same boat

ddnspider

sigh.....either need backup wheels or sell the ones i have.Anyone not have alot of hp that want awesome wheels??lol

carado1984

the width isnt going to give you as much traction as the sidewall, there needs to be some flex, and with that you sacrifice handling, so would you rather go fast and straight or be able to turn?

A 315 BFG DR still won't do it a low speeds

As mentioned, i doubt they would do anything with that much horse. I have that size of tire on my car now with stock power and they can barley hook in 1st. They are not a DR, but still not a desirable size for anything with decent power, its just what came on my car.

Watch towards the end of this vid, im at about half to 3/4 throttle in 1st to try and keep it from spinning, and this is just with a couple bolt ons.

^^car sounds great with the cutout open. love the all motor sound. like it even better with two cutouts though!

Yeah, it didnt sound too bad. It definatly made some noise thats for sure. I got rid of the catback and cutout now and im going to get some TD's fabbed up this spring. I liked the sound of it with the cutout open, and didnt mind how loud it was, but it needed some tone. I think im going to get a couple powerpack's with a OR/H pipe

get some MT or nitto dr's.....275/40 should hook decent

i believe that with anything less than a 2.0 60' and being able to hook 2nd the car will run 11's on a street tire.
