what would you be using them for.it looks like drag wil tear these things up and those things probably carry a heavy price tag.if youre gonna do road racing they look to be pretty good.

yeah,for drag.The price i got for those was 290 per tire,not to many options when trying to get a drag radial for 18's.And i dont really feel like buying a new set of rims.

well I know mickey T hasn't come out with any 18" sizes yet and BFG doesn't have too many 18" sizes. if ur looking to hook up better than just a standard radial and don't want to buy rims look into the nitto drag radials and see what they offer, I heard they are better than a standard radial but not quite as good as the mickey T D.R.

Those are road racing tires not drag radials. They have rock hard sidewalls and won't be good for launching.

YUP!
If you want a dual purpose tire for street/drag in 18" it's either BFG or Nitto DR's ![[worship]](graemlins/worship.gif)
If you want the most traction and don't mind coming down to a 17" it's MT all the way
