Need pro's and con's please!
 
I'm ready to pull the trigger on some new rear tires. I have 295/35/18 BFG 2's on it now. I want to go with either the Nitto555R or BFG Drag Radial 2's. Any pro's or cons? I've heard that the 555R's last longer and I need better hook up but not trying to get a 1.7 60ft. I'd be plenty happy ith a 1.9 as I still have the stock 10bolt rear. Also the closest size i can find is 305/35/18 which is about the same height and @ a inch wider. Thanks!

All I can offer is that I have the 555R and an happy with em. Hook well, haven't shown much wear after couple thousand miles and track passes x10 or so. And they run narrow compare to others so a 305 probly work for u.

Thanks for the response! I did a bunch of research and found the same results so I ordered them off Amazon for $320ea. w/free shipping. So $620 shipped to my door. I hope thats a good deal... If not,oh well... Won't be the 1st time I wasted money! Lol What size are you running?
