Default BFG T/A DR vs BFG T/A DR2

What's the difference between the regular DRs and the DR2s from BF Goodrich? Do the DR2 series get moremileage or is it the same? Anyone with these tires who want to chime in? I do 90% street and 10% track. Maybe nittos are more my type of DRs...

i think nittos would work fine for you. unless you get that novi real soon but i do a lot of street driving too...rarely visit the track...so i cant really afford to buy new tires every 6000 miles. once i get the nittos buying new ones every 10,000 or so will be bad enough. at least i think thats about how long they last. sorry i cant help ya with the bfg differences tho.

I was refering that you cant get these in 315's on a 17" rim.. 18" in rim yes you can.... Well just check the sizes... http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Sizes....FA+Drag+Radial

The nitto 555r and the BFgoodrich drag radial 2 you can get in 315's and other sizes that will fit..
