i was just curious as i will be doing a mix of autocross and 1/4 mile and it would be either these or just the 555DR

anyone comments suggestions? they have the 275/40/17 to fit stockers and should be the same actual width as the regular DR's.

Probably wouldn't make a good drag tire. I am sure the sidewall is uber stiff.

yea that is what i was wondering the stiffer sidewall wouldnt be the greatest for dragging. but the tire will be a mix between autocross dragging and DD/very spirited driving
