What size wheel are they going on? Im not sure you could expect a dead hook with a drag radial on the street esp with a kb.

I have always like the BFG and MT DR's. Doubt you will get dead solid hook on any of them though, but much better then a street tire.

Well, last night I raced several cars from 40-140. GT35R STI and beat it. 03 cobra with intake and exhaust and I beat that. Raced a pullied and exhaust 08' GT500 and I took that from 40-120 but after 120 he started pulling. I got most of these runs on cell phone cam, i might have my buddy youtube them, today.

I was freaking SHOCKED that my lil car actually is this quick, and everyone who was there knows if my car had a D/R tire, i could beat alot of stuff from a dig because for some reason the kenne bell pulls HARD in the midrange. Its crazy.

Need D/R. Help me out cause i wanna order today.

You just told us you got these on your cell phone. Post the vids. Why do you change your story so much?

Oh, and I'll keep calling you a lying piece of shit (because you are) until you post the videos. Then I'll leave you alone. Maybe. Probably not.

hooisers are great and the mickey thompsons have always done me good. depending on ur suspension setup if you had some 10 way adjustable rear shocks you might be able to get a dead hook cus you can set em up super soft so it squats and just leaves hard

M/T's are great but I am really liking my nittos, but I'm not sure how well it will do with no sidewall flex on a 40 series mine are 275/60's
