Default Drag Radials...

I can get some 295/35/18 BFG drag radials for the same price as the 285/35/18 Nitto 555's and about $50 less than the Nitto DR's.

How much faster will the drag radials make my ET's? What about streetability? I know their tread life is short, but how short?

Also, I'd love to have matching tires, but I couldn't afford BFG's on the front... Is it really worth it for a car that's going to the strip MAYBE twice a year and just racing ricers and other kids from my HS?

EDIT: Crap, I have more questions... What's the widest i can go on a 18x9" wheel? 275, 285, 295? What's the biggest that can fit under the car? I don't want to rub or replace any suspension items yet (can't afford it)

Thanks all!
