Default Nittos or Yokohama

Im looking for tires now since my tires are almost done after 10K miles or racing on road courses and drag racing from week to week. Im running Nittos Drag radails 315 in the back and Dunlops 275 in the front. I hate the dunlops because it tends to understeer alot, but I really like the nittos. Now this car is my daily driver and the nittos did fine in the rain with no problems.
I heard some people talking about the Yokohama A032R H and S compond. Im thinking to go with the H componed because of the weight of my car.


Anyways my question is......... How does the A032R H behave in rain and which is better in terms of performance....... The A032R H 275 fronts and 315''back or Nittos Nittos 555II exterme in the front and 315's drag radails in the back?

I'm no expert but I would say the Yokohamas would be a better especially in the rain over the drag radials. It auto crossing the A032 would be better on draging the DR would be better but in the rain I would say the A032. Hope this helps
