Someone's eventually gonna say it, so: BFG KDW2... hook better in dry, hook better in wet, pimp fly ghetto fabulous tread pattern, blahblahblah (I hear they are noisy as hell though).
But I really liked my Nitto's. They lasted about 30,000 miles. Seemed to hook fine the 1 time I went to the track on them, and didn't spin too easily on the street. HP Addiction is right though, seems like just below 40 degrees, they get kinda wild. No experience with any other aftermarket performance tire.
Yup, i say go with the BFG KDW2's. Amazing when its dry or wet and lead to 1.9 60' times at the track even when track prep isn't that good.
BTW, any highperformance summer tire will get pretty damn slippery when the temperature drops below 40 degrees. The rubber compound is just not warm enough to hook well.
thanks for the advice yea im definently more intrested in traction when launching than cornering so if anybody knows a good tire for that let me know
I dont think you will ever have good traction w/ a street tire. There are alot of DRs out there that are good for driving on the street. I always wanted some nitto drs so I got some and they blow a$$. I cant get traction on the street or especially at the track. But they were used. I will be getting some Mickey Tompson DRs this summer. My buddy has them and they are awesome. Thats just my expirence.
I hate tires. For some reason they never last on my car.
i dont wanta dr because i hear they dont last long.....but yea i need lca's my 60ft is a 2.0 13.505 1/4 right now i believe so if i could get it down to a 1.8 1.9 i be real close to 12's
Drag radials aren't made to last long my friend. They are meant for track use only. If you get MT drag radials, you WILL get 1.5 60ft times.
For the street most people will recommend BFG KDW2 or Goodyear Eagle f1's. But I'm not going to spend $200+ dollars for a frickin street tire. I hear Nitto555's hook pretty good on the street. And for the price, you can't go wrong.
