Default Opinions on BFG Drag Radials ?

Well, thanks to having access to used tires at Reeves I now have a couple of well worn but usable 275/40-17 BFG Drag Radials to replace the toasted 275/40-17 BFG R1s on my auto-x rims.



While the noticably thin sidewalls won't be the greatest for auto-x I figure they will still beat the street tires and will certainly help my straight line performance once my mods are done.

Can anyone share thier opinions with us about BFGDRs?

BFG's are a sticky as shit. Best drag radial you can buy. But, for daily driven use, they last about 5k miles. They suck in the rain too.
