Default Anyone try these?

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/bfg-74184/overview/

Looking to take the car back to the track this year and I don't think the 5 year old Nittos will be any good since they have been sitting for so long. Wanted to try these or the Nitto NT05. I have had great luck with BF Goodrich tires so I am leaning towards them, would love some input though. Oh and before anyone chimes in the MT E/T streets are going be out of my price range. Thanks for any input.

a member on here has those, I'll see if I can find him, but they look really sweet in a 315 and have a huge center patch. I see you're looking at 275's, but I don't see a whole lot of people that run those. Is your car more of a straight line car or do you like to autoX at all? I'm running the MT et's drag radial and they hook well and even provide a bit of confidence in the turns. I'm not putting down close to 600whp though..haha

If you want the best performance for the 1/4 mile, look into a drag radial tire.

I'd say they will be on par with pretty much all the other tires in that category for a 17 inch wheel.
