Just a quick note...these tires are VERY heavy. If traction is a concern, I'd highly suggest sticking with ET Streets or ET Drags. By using these tires, you're increasing rotational mass by ~25 lbs!!. The weight is located in the worst area also.
I don't see the gain in performance and traction with this tire over previously mentioned tires. Of course if a race mandated drag radials only then I could validate the use.
I see guys using 275'/50's on 8 inch wheels...not recommended by most manufactures proper sizing is a 10 inch wheel.
I'm not picking on anyone or stating anyone has made a terrible judgement...just adding some information to consider.

Mine will be on daily driven car thats why im not going with the other brands besides nitto due to the milage. The 325/50/15 would be somewhat close to a 315/35/17 wouldnt they? Besides the height but width.
