    I have been told that the nittos are better by almost everyone. They Seem REALLY grippy when hot and at a low air pressure.

        I run the nitto's on my car at 12 psi and right now I'm getting 2.0 60 ft times launching at 2000rpm's with no spinning, so I'd say they work good plus I drive on them daily.

          12 psi on nittos..haha so stupid and a 2.0 60' is nothing to brag about

          i run the BFG's and ive cut numerous 1.90's (still sucks) they are not the best street tires but i have drag rims for them anyways. BTW i run 24 PSI in mine

            well good for you but bfg's are not street tires and any dumbass can tell that. Just because you can drive them on the street doesnt mean that they will respond to all street environments the same, such as rain. My best friend wrapped his car into a tree because of bfg's I was following him and he was not speeding or anything just a bump in the road sent him sliding. And as for the 60 ft time 2.0 is good depending on your location, it's people like you that think you know everything that give racers a bad name.

              i give racers a bad name.. your rediculous tire pressure gives me a stomach ache from laughing. 12 PSI. your 200 Ft LBS are ruthless on tires.

              BFG's are street tires they are DOT approves tires they are not ET streets by any means but they are street tires . they were around before nittos. they arent the best tires as ive said. BUT ive run them on the street and in teh rain

                Well you may laugh all you want and as far as my 200 lbs ft i'm pretty sure that my car stock had 225 lbs ft, and with my new engine and everything I would say im alot closer to 300 if not over and I had the zexel lsd and with and normal tire psi (around 35) and no burnout I spin my tires I had to spend a couple weekends playing with tire pressure before I got it right. My car runs 9.4 in the 1/8 which is over a second faster than stock, and it took me time to get there, so when I give advice it is from experience not guessing which Is why I dont bash other people's statement unless it is outright BS.
