Are these the tires that are BFG's equivelant to the Nitto Drag Radial? I can get them for 150 each. Is this a good tire? 150 per tire sounds pretty reasonable to me. Have you guys used them and what do you think of them?

Those are just regular tires. I've heard they are pretty good.

If you want some drag radials get the BFG T/As.

i have kd's on the cobra, DO NOT GET THEM IF U WNAT THEM FOR DRAG RACING, these tires make the car handle like a porshe, but they are meant for road racing, autocross, the nitto's are a way superior tire for drag racing, the kd hasnt let me down let, unless i am racing someone in a straigh line, but these kd's let me beat a newer z06 corvette with the upgraded suspension pakage through the twisties, since they are so bad for straight line i am going with the bfg dr's this summer, i will just put the kd's on if i want to go up to the lake and burn some cars around the corners

KD's are great for road courses, but not very good for wet traction.

The KDW is less sticky, lasts longer, and has some wet traction.

KDWS is the all weather tire.
