I like my Nittos alot, but I realized my first time at the strip that you have to do a huge burnout to get them to hook.

Also I just saw an ET street 275x45x17 at the local performance shop. Thats right, an ET street tire that fits a normal wheel. Also mickey thompson has a new drag radial out.

You can definitely drive safe on the street w/the 275s. You will be happier with the 275s IMO, For looks and traction.

I know everybody says Nittos don't hook as good as BFGs, but I just broke an axle last week because my Nittos hooked like slicks at the track. I just did about a 5 second burnout and they were gummy like slicks. I launched at about 3300 rpms and broke my left axle right at the line because the Nittos hooked like slicks. I wasn't expecting them to hook like that but they did. I say go ahead and get the Nittos. THEY WORK!!!!!
