I have run the Nittos and the BFG drag radials. If you want a longer wearing drag tire for street racing, go with the Nitto. If you don't mind replacing the tires every year, go with the BFG drag radials. I took 3 tenths of my 2001 100 hp N20 shot 6 spd z28 with the BFG's.
One last thing the Nitto's are better in the rain. BFG's can be a little loose.
