i believe it m/t's are number 1 in drag racing( personal opinion) although hoosier's are nice, but i dont think they make 15' radials

Right now I'm rocking the Nitto 555's and they are way better than azenis.

Azenis aren't drag radials, they are a tire designed for atuoX. They are stickey from the get, but heat quickley and can get greasy. Hardly a drag tire. The 615's are light years better tan the 215's though. I've seen the BFG's hook 1.5's on 400whp rwd cars. If you want something that can be driven on the road if need be in teh wet go with the Nitto 555R, but if youwant a hard ass drag radial it doesn't get better than the BFG. The second one in the pix above.

According to them it's DOT approved but not recommended. Definitely sounds serious. :y
