This is for the guys that do a little bit Drag Racing, or a lot of Drag Racing. I'm thinking about getting a set of drag radials, but I would like some input. Which would you guys buy? Nitto's, BF Goodriches, or M&H Racemasters? I plan to only use these occasionally, and I'm interested in price as well as performance.

I may even look at a set of Fat and Skinny wheels for this set-up. Any recommendations?

i've heard that the Nitto drag radials are pretty good! for the wheels, i think Center Line Warriors look pretty sweet, i know somebody who had them on an 85 notch and it looked badass :devil:

The 1.59 time he's referring to, are 60 foot times, not 0 to 60 mph. He said he could only get there once.

I know that, it was just worded wrong:)

i dont know about the rest of you guys here, im an avid drag racer


you can go with bf goodrich or an mt streetmaster....on a 15 inch rim w/ a big sidewall

nittos wont get you the 1/4 mile bite youre looking for




nittos do last a lot longer on the street....the compound is much harder

I had the BFGs on my stock wheels. I only used them to drive to the track and back. They still didn't last very long because the compound was so soft. I have Nitto 555DRs now. I haven't had the chance to run them at the track yet, but they look good on my garage floor!
