Default Which DR's

Nitto NT 555R Drag Radial 275-40-17 $151.99
OR
Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial - 275/40R17 $186.99

Or anyother good DR's that are around the same price.
How noticeable would this be if i drove around on some
Front 2 tires are 275/40/17 (regular street tire)
And if it doesnt look to noticeable the rears would be 315/35/17 (drag radial)

Are you getting new wheels? Because the 275 and the 315 will not both fit on the same wheel (safely). You want a 9-9.5" wide for the 275 and 11-11.5" for the 315 to fit well.

It depends what you are doing with the car. Tire choice needs to consider application first.

Ive got 10" rims so maybe the 275 would be best to stick with. does anybody make like 295 or 305's that might fit???
