the mickeys are great but if u ever get caught in the rain, your gona be in for a ride. the mickeys are probly the stickiest drag radial but id go with nittos or bfg. the nittos will last longer then the bfgs but the bfg are stickier.

If your an auto and mostly stock, I would just get a set of Nitto's. They are cheaper and last longer than other dr's. If you have a higher than stock stall converter, then maybe I'd consider a set of BFG's.

Edit: I saw in your sig that you have nitrous. If your not gonna dd on the drag radials, I would go with the mickey thompsons. If you are gonna dd, get the BFG's.

I say et streets they are the best...that is if you are only using them for the strip...They are the stickiest but what last that long if you use them for every day use
