Default Drag Radials

Can I put drag radials on the back without changing the front tires? Also, which tires give good traction but can be driven daily?

yes, you can run DR's on back and not change the fronts.

Nittos seem to last longer on the street than any other DR, but don't hook quite as good at the track. I personally will probably be trying the new Mickey Thopson DR's soon.

So long as the tire diameter is the same you will be ok. If the tire diamter is off you can run into problems setting ASR and ABS INOP lights because the computer will see the tires spinning at different speeds.
