Default Lets talk Drag Radials......

Never really seen a thread on this before? I'm looking for some radials for my trip to the track in a couple weeks. I just recently bought some 18's. The rears are 18x10, it was the lowest size I could do with my rear bbk. They are +35 offset. My fendors are rolled.

I was looking at BFG's maybe 295/35/18 Dia of 26.2
or maybe
BFG 275/35/18 Dia of 25.6
or maybe
Nitto 285/35/18 not sure what the diameter is on this tire. You guys have any thoughts, experience, ideas, links, any help appreciated..

Do you still have your stock 16's? They'd be a better choice to put DR's on. You want a little sidewall flex during launch, you won't get that with 18's.

I don't have a choice. I have a rear bbk that requires at least an 18 inch wheel to clear...So I need drags for my 18's..
