Default 315 nitto vs. 275 MT drag radial

i know this is repeated so damn much but the search isnt working and i got some simple repeated questions.

i know nitto 315's should be put on stock 9" rims so dont flame that.

the MT 295/45/17 wont be out for another 2 months

tread life: mickey or nitto
Street hooking: mickey or nitto
How much do you have to heat them up for them to hook on the street?


i am at about 350 rwhp now, but will be h/c/n2o this summer and will most like be going to m&h for track tires but would still want one of these as a DD.

From what I have read the nittos will last a good bit longer than the M/T's. M/T's hook better. Nittos require more of a burn out.


With H/C + N20 I doubt either will hook great on the street.

My understanding is that the M/T's are a softer compound. They give better traction but wear faster.
