I've bought all of my tires from the Tire Rack (a sponsor) for about 15 years now.

tire rack and discount tire are tough to beat. tires are pretty cheap IMO.

talking 155 dollars for 16" drag radials. you are crazy to pay over 200+ dollars for any z rated radial. they are all equally junky IMO for performance driving.

Yup, I drove 81 miles each way every day plus a lot on weekends and I averaged 1 rear set a year (putting the fronts in the back and new ones on the front). I've never used drag radials, but I have used other tires than Goodyear in the past and love the Goodyears for braking as well as taking off. Now I'm talking about DD use, not track use.
