MT vs BFG Drag Radial

So i burned off the BFG 315/60R15 in a hurry. They never hooked even after some 100+ yard burn outs. The MT 325/50R15 sit a little lower and give it a better stance. These are a bit softer and hook incredibly well. Very little warm up required. I have not done any huge burn outs on them. The only time i have noticed any spinning is when i hit it hard from a slow speed or stop and when cold. Even then they dont spin too long before hooking. I love them. They make the truck feel faster. The BFG would be slippery at 50+ hitting the throttle hard. These just hook so well.

Just wanted to share incase anyone was thinking of spending money.

Re: MT vs BFG Drag Radial

Yep, I do prefer the MT ET Drag Radials over the BFGs. The tough thing with both tires is to fight the urge to do long burnouts. Neither tire works well after long burnouts.
