Question Drag Radials
Well its about time for some new drag radials. I run the 315/35/17s. I am going thru my second set of Nitto 555Rs and was wondering if I had a better option out there. Goodyear and Goodrich both have drag radials in my size and I want to know whats my best choice until Micky Thompson releases their new sizes. What would you get?
