Which Drag Radial?
Alright, someone please advise me. Which of these DR tires will give me better traction at the strip with my 12-bolt. These will ONLY be bolted up for the drive to the track. Now it is 50 miles each way, so I will be putting a good amount of miles on them but they will not be driven on daily.
315/35-R17 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial 2
or
275/40-R17 Mickey Thompson ET Street Drag Radial
Thanks

I just had a set of MT ET streets P255 50R 16" put on the T/A the day before yesterday and they look sweet. You can really sink your fingers in the tread. The car went down the Interstate just beautiful @ 70 mph, rode very nice. It's to cold to try to launch it right now. They are a sharp looking tire.
They're so soft they have got to hook up.

Hi Guys,
I can't answer the question but no one really answered this thread. The real question is 315/35 (BFG) vs 275/40 (MT) the way I read it. The BFG 315's have more rubber hitting the road but is the MT better with less rubber on the road???
