i am wanting to know what drag radial grips the best. the ones i am looking at are the 205/50/14 bfg drag radial and the 205/55/14 nitto nt555r drag radial, but i'm open to other suggestions.

 

I plan on getting the BFG's.

 

get BFGs

 

m/t or bfg hoosier

 

For 14's definitly go with the bfg's.

 

I use bfg. It dropped my 60ft 3 tenths 2nd time out. and they seem to be lasting.

 

M/T's

 

m/t, hoosier, and m&h doesn't have a size for 14 inch rims and i am planning to put these on some steelies. what kind of 60' times are you guys pulling with your bfg's. a guy on turbod16 (jfk) pulled a 1.8 60' with his nitto drag radials and i was wondering if i could get into the 1.8's. also, how hot do the bfg's like to get when you run them, and how big of a burnout should i do?

 

I would get the right wheel so your selection of tires is much better. I would much rather shop for the best tire for my combo, not the only tire that fits my wheel.

But BFG's aren't bad, I just wouldn't say they hook the best??

 

BFG's don't hook worth a damn, but then what does fwd. I'm going wuth MT's 235/60/15,so we'll see.

 

1.82 60' on 225 bfgs

lasted 9,000 miles on a 260whp lst hatch

 

The Mickey's or the BFG's

My BFG's hook decent.

 

BFG's do hook decent to good, depending on several things. Don't expect to get the best out of them if your car isn't setup to run them sucessfully.

Just bolting them on makes an improvement, but getting down below 1.9 on them takes some talent behind the wheel and decent suspension/driveline tuning...

 

for 15s go hoosier, they grip

 

Link to the hoosiers?

 

[/threadjack]

What about something on a 17 rim?

bfg's still?

 

m/t

 

i would go with 225 instead of 205. a lot of my all motor friends have gotten 1.8 60' ft on 225/50/15. but im not sure if they make 225 for 14's tho

They make 215's. I'm getting the 205's though cause I don't think the 215's will fit my 5.5" steelies I got to mount the BFG's on.

 

BFG D/R FTW

 

The BFG's work pretty good for me. I just gotta learn how to drive a lil better and lower my 60ft times.

..MT or BFG in that order

 

My 225 bfg's hooked better than a set of 26" M/T's I tried out.

 

My BFG drag radial didn't hook up a I thought they would. I use to get 2.3 60ft before on snow tires, and with the BFG's I only managed a best 2.2 60 ft
