I find that hard to believe because I know a guy with a 500 wrhp cobra with 305 nittos and doesnt spin in second when he steps on it.

i guess i would find that hard to believe. 500 at the wheels and he cant them to spin by tacking 3K and mashing the throttle? what does he have, 273s or something? i'm telling ya the truth, i can even fishtail it if i want. maybe cause the road is grooved? i cant do it on blacktop. do these things take a bit for heat to build up in them? it is usually just stop and go and creeping in traffic.

I used BFG's and they felt fine in the rain to me. You just can't try to accellerate fast, but that's a given isn't it?

My Nitto's felt scarier than the BFG's to me.

I had some BFG Comp TA DR's on my 96 one time. it was one of those hot summer august days in the south and we had a quick thunderstorm come through, and needless to say, i had to call a wrecker to get me out of the ditch. when they hit that slick pavement...that was all she wrote....360's down the middle of the hwy, and in the ditch.....
