RE: What tire to get???

You guys who recommend Nitto's.. do those things do good in cornering too, it's not just a drag radial?

How much power are you putting to the wheels?
If it's under 350, I'd say go with some BFG KDWs and some Max. Motorsports lower control arms...
If it's around or over 350, I'd go with the Nitto D/Rs

Other factors: How much track time will you see? If you plan on going to the track, street tires won't be any good. How much rain will you see? Drag radials + Rain = Trouble

ill be putting out 290 hp max so thats not an issue...as far as track time goes ill head out there every chance i get but only on open test and tune nights (about 15 for the whole year)...as far as rain goes...im in Tucson, AZ...rain is not a factor
