Not nearly as good as BFGs, but think you get a bit more mileage out of them.

Re: Nitto Drag Radial?
 

My view of them was that were they better than a true street tire yes but if your expecting rolling up to the track and cutting some good times with them its not the tire. Like i said they may have changed them since then. They drove ok on the street but in rain it was a death wish. I belief everyone who tried them cut .2 tenths of there 60's somewhere in that range. Not horrible not great.

iv used my bfgs a for a few passes now, and iv been happy with them, There not slicks, but they beat the hell out of street tires

Re: Nitto Drag Radial?
 

Hopefully MT actually does another run of there drag radials as they are the best but are out of stock everywhere :'(

Re: Nitto Drag Radial?
 

555r's are decent, but far from a real drag radial, thats what i have on my camaro and they hook good, of course i have 315 wide tires not some rail thin 205s :6

<------been deep into the 11's on a 245/50/16 555r Nitto, But it was a rear wheel drive car.

Mt's and hoosiers are best Followed by BFG and Nitto. Don't have experience with the M&H's or anything else

Re: Nitto Drag Radial?
 

M&H are the ONLY way to fly son.

Re: Nitto Drag Radial?
 

I agree. Their tires which I first used back in like 98 22 inch slicks on stock honda 13 steelies cut 1.7 60's on a sohc vtechhhhhh on the laughing gas. Cut springs/blown strut action. Oh to be 18 again.

Re: Nitto Drag Radial?
 

i wish mickey thompson made their et street in front wheel drive sizes. all of the muscle car guys i know that run them, have the same 60' with them, as they do with et drags, but they are "dot approved". not anything for street, but if you race any classes that require dot tires, theyre the ----, and you can still compete with the slicks, and not need two sets of tires... theyre still bias ply, wrinkle wall, look just like a slick, but with some pointless lines in them for a "tread" pattern.

mh tire works with import/fwd drivers. There compounds work and they are nice guys. Bakersfield the home of race cars/mexicans and white trash. I love kern county.
