RE: nitto dr vs mickey thompson dr
i have tried the bfg's drag radials, adn the mickeyt's but not the nittos, i couldn't hook for **** with the bfgs. the mickeys were nicer, didn't last as long, but i def hooked better and have heard that in comparing the mickey'ss to the nittos, the nittos yes last longer, but hook worse, i choose hoook than last longer, it's the price u pay for having power.

RE: nitto dr vs mickey thompson dr
I've had my M/T Drag Radials on for about 4 months and have went to the track many times, lit the tires up on the street, and run through all the gears barking 2nd and 3rd. There is practically no tread wear and i've been driving around with 12 psi for pretty much the whole time.
These tires hold up fine and the only draw back IMO is if you hit your brakes in the rain you'll be powersliding like a ****.
BTW, Nitto has the worst drag radial ever created. Their compound is just as hard as my BFG KDW's on my other stang... Plus i've run them at the track and lets just say traction becomes a problem.

RE: nitto dr vs mickey thompson dr
nittos last the longest and hook decent. Friend has them.
My other friend had bfgs he said they hooked good for a while but hardened up
He is now running mt's with no complaints.
