You didn't try checking the Tire Rack website, did you? Why not???

Tire Rack does not have any drag radials in 205/45-16, but they have several R compound tires (track tires) that ought to do well at the drag strip. The Hoosier A3S05 is an autocross tire, designed to heat up quickly. The Hoosier R3S04 and Kumho Ecsta V700 are both road racing tires. All are available in that size.

The BFGoodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial is available in 205/40-17, as is the Kumho Ecsta V700 road racing tire.

</TD></TR></TABLE>yes i did but not really looking into a auto cross tire. im looking more for a tire that is meant for drag. kinda hoping for someone to tell me they still got the old school nitto 555 drag radials in the 205/45/16 which i know they discontinued a while back too. but if the autocross is the only thing i can get then by means thats what they will be. and yes the bfg is most likely what im going to get for my 17's but wanted to see if anyone knew of other brands then the bfg and the kumho.
