Nitto DRs SUCK!!!

Do 17 rims, IMO 18s are to big and they will slow you down at the track. If your going to do DRs get BFGs or MT. They wont last long but by god they'll grip. I was always told BFGs will last about 10k miles with maybe 2-3 trips to the track in there and MTs less than that. As far as street tires Ive heard alot of good things about the BFG KDWs.

here's a good price. These tires fit very well on a 17x10.5 rim.

Fat tires are hard to find for an 18" wheel.
