Considering that my car hooks well over 600WHP in 2nd gear on 225 SNOW tires, whatever you put on there is going to work bud. Just get whatevers cheapest on Tire Rack in the proper size/ratings. ---

Just get whatevers cheapest on Tire Rack in the proper size/ratings. i want these because they 60ft good, from a roll my car doesn’t burnout like yours ☹ and snow tires are obviously a softer compound then summer tires so it would in fact hook better. ---

And the lower speed rating means softer side wall construction like a drag tire. A well broken in snow tire works great at the strip ---

Those BFG are ok, driven with them at the track on a GTO and they hooked decent, ran 12.9@114 I think with a 225 width tire. They do get really loud with some miles on them. I would get something else in that price range if it was me. I believe those are what come on SRT 4 stock and those guys usually ditch them. And they do smoke real well too haha. All of the G-Force do, I had the gfroce sport on my 98 gt. ---

Hands down the best tire I have used. They grip great, handle well, and wear slow. ---

I had BFG G Force KDs and the were pretty sticky. Ended up selling them with a set of wheels. Best tires I ever owned. The General Exclaim UHPs are not bad. I dont know how they stck up on the launch with other tires tho. I assume they leave a little on table with all season tread and harder compound. ---
