Re: Drag Radial Question (stuart3232)
first of all, will a 315 tire fit on a 9" rim? also can't decide on the nitto's or the bfg's?? not really worried about tread life, all i want is TRACTION!

Re: Drag Radial Question (stuart3232)
I went with the BFG in 315.35.17 mounted on 12" wide wheels. With the rear brake cables tied down, fit is fine. The BFGs seem easier to properly heat, a plus if you don't have/want a line-lock. I have only four runs on mine after figuring out the heating process (1.82, 1.82, 1.79, 1.70). They also stay hooked to the shifts.
The BFGs are normally in shot supply; so if you go that way, buy them during the winter.
