Hey guys, was wondering if anyone in here knew if the BFG drag Radial 315 is any Wider than a Nitto 315 DR? I'm also wondering if they wear similar. I know it's no million mile tire but my Nitto drags I'm running now have lasted a long time. I'm looking for as big a drag radial as I can get for my 17 X 10.5 wheels, and I don't like how the nittos run so small. Thanks for the input!

The Nittos last alot longer,,but the BFG's have more bite at the track.Not sure about the width.Call up a tire shop and ask them to look it up for you.They list the exact hieght and width!!

I agree with Willys1 on this...the nitto will last a lot longer...I have the BFG's...they are ok but not worth how much they last...Nitto will be my next tire...

315's Love the fact that you can fit those size tires on without modifying anything. I've aways heard that nitto sizes there tires a little wider but thats just what I heard ( mostly in 4.6talk ) ANyways, your going to look killer with those one

actually the Nittos are smaller overall even with the same dimetions...That is due to the compound they use to make their rubber...hence it last long since it is softer yet harder than the rest...if that makes sense
