If your making 325 or less DR's will last a little bit longer, but you might as well just use street tires. It's really not until you get over 400 hp when you have bad traction issues( 4th gear traction issues). Then drag radials become important.

 

Thats quite the strangely opinionated answer...

My car with a little under 300whp was usless until third gear on a DR in a 2700lb coupe...

 

Alright, its definately my own opinion, but if you use throttle control, street tires hook well with 300hp. Im having traction problems with my 225/50/15 dr's into 4th gear, so my opinion on dr's might be a little different.

 

i daily'd both the 205x50 and 225x50's
i got abotu 6-9K out of them..
pure DD'ing too

1 set up was a 214whp NA
2nd was a 282whp LS-T

rain is ok with thread of course.. but of you like to smash all the tiem they wont last long at all...

 

 

i'm about to pick uo a set of 225/50/15 bfg dr's. i'm making 385whp now and i only have traction in 4th and 5th. hopefully i can get traction in 3rd with the drag radials

you wont be dissappinted...what were you runnig before?

i went from azenies to 225's Dr's and cant say anything bad about them....theyre a lil steep on price...but the traction is key

 

I think it helps alot to just run bigger tires. I'm running 225/50/15 BF Goodrich G-force sport, and I only lose traction in 1st gear on a B20/vtec turbo setup in an Integra. These tires are cheap and they last a long time. Traction isn't as good as the DR's of course, but for DD they do the job pretty well.
