think these used BFG DRs are worth this price???

ok i have mentioned me considering some drag radials from a local guy.

i originally thought he wanted 75$ for both of them. I ran into him tonight and asked him if he still had em. He will sell em for 50$ for both. awesome

i asked about the tread. He said there is tread there, i saw them once and there was some there. He commented it only looks like enought tread for like 2 track passes depending on the size of the burnout.

Well i am in need of a good tire to use. My old, bald nasty street radials dont cut it anymore, i am fed up with them.....

My question is. Should these BFGs hook up pretty good on the street compared to my current street tires, the rubber on my tires now is hard and doesnt hook. Will the BFGs still be soft like they should or do they get harder as it loses tread??

I dont really care how long they last, they are cheap.
So do these sound like a good grab?

they will prolly only last about 800-1000 more mile if that

but for 50 bucks that could get you through a couple months.

i think they will last a bit for me. I am pretty easy on the car 90% of the time.
I never do burnouts, like the ones where you hold it, never really got a smoke show going before.

They should hook well so i wont be spinning them everytime i floor it...

the thing is they are very soft rubber so they wear out quickly from just normal driving conditions. they will hook very nicely.

exactly. my friend put them on his car and they lasted a couple months from new!

50+25 for mount and bal. so 75 bucks for tires that might last 3 months. seems a waste of money for someone who doesnt "I am pretty easy on the car 90% of the time.

Those tires are designed for dry weather..definately not an all season tire. The wear is a factor wether you spinning or not, they wear quickly when driven due to the soft tread. Get some decent comp T/A's or more seasonal tires.

HOLY MOLY, scary ride with them if you get caught in the rain

I run the 275/50 bfg dr's on my car. I dont think they lasted more than 5k total, only with 2 track passes and street driving. They hook awesome on the street however with my 580 horsepower 418. With the stick the car stuck, with the auto however, when it comes up on the converter it tends to smoke em. I'm going to try the new MT dr's this year.
