I have had them in 17" when I was running 12.50s and they worked great. I had 60' times in the high 1.70s on a good track. I have 275/50-15 Nittos now and get consistent low 1.60 60' times and have dipped into the 1.50 range once with them.

I ran them on my car for about 3 years. They worked out fine. Smoky burn outs are def the way to go w/ them though.

Yeah but would you rather have a drag radial (under the same circumstances) lasts around 12,000 miles or 4,000-5,000. It's all about what you want about the tire, if you want a decent hook and great tread life go with the nitto. If you're looking for a really good hook with barely any tread life go with the M/T's or the BFG's.
