I'm about to get blown with the mongoose kit pretty soon.So i was thinking of either getting 275 semi slicks for the back OR 315's ...what do you guys think is better? i will be around 360rwhp so will 315 street tires do it for me or should i get 275's semi-slicks.
NOTE : I never go to the track which means i wont do hard launches.I almost never launch from 0 . All my racing is done from a roll .

What wheels will they be going on? 275's may look strange on a wide wheel.. if you are sure you'll never be going to the track, I wouldn't even bother with drag radials.. they won't help your traction a whole lot on the street anyway, and they'll just wear out faster than regular 315's.

If you're not gonna go to the track or do any racing where you're gonna launch, don't waste your money on Drag Radials. I'd go with 315's tho, just for the extra meat in the back.. Some Goodyear GS-D3's or BFG KDW2's or KD's should do quite nicely
