Default BFGoodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial???

Anyone ever use the BFGoodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial insead of the Nitto 555r's or the Gs-d3's??? I'm just wondering cause I have a friend that gets a huge discount on them, but they are no good to me if they wont hook.... Any info would be great.... Thanks

They hook better then the nitto's. They just dont last long.

The bfg drag radial hooks even better at the track but isn't very good on the street's and will last maybe 5,000 miles. Also they suck in they rain.

Yes I have ran both and so have many of my friends.

What do I run. Nitto drag radials. Because I dont take it to the track that much and want a tire to last somewhat.

That is just my .02

I love my BFG's and was very impressed with them in the rain actually, but they are almost at full tread.

Get a set of light weight rims to mount the BFGs on and they will last you a lot longer. I know the cars are different but I'm disappointed with 60fts 1.80 or above in my bolt on 3rdgen, the BFGs hook very well once you heat them and find a good psi to run them at.

I'll post up the price when I he gets it to me...


Next Question anyone ever just run BF Goodrich g Force T/A KDW2 NT's all around, I was thinking of running them in the front but if the traction isn't all that bad on them I might go with them all around since my Trans Am is my daily driver and its going to be drivin in the Rain...

-Thanks Guys

I don't have them, but I know people like them. I'll give you a really good deal on some M&H Racemasters if you want them for a 15 inch rim. PM me if you are interested. They hooked really good on my monte.
