    Well I used to run drag radials when I had the eaton setup. Last all of 3k miles on BFGs. I'm using KDW's now. I know no matter what it def won't cure the hopping 100%. You gotta remember I'm running 18x11's in the rear, tires arn't cheap like stock 17" wheels. If all else fails in the end maybe I'll throw some DR's on there down the road, Adding the mods listed def won't hurt at any rate.

    How do those KDWs hook up with the KB? I was drivin my car today and with the KB at 17lbs my 315 Sumitomos were spinnin in 3rd. 1st and 2nd gear are useless with these tires. But I need new ones soon to get it inpsected so I was going to get some 315 Nittos because they are the cheapest other than the Sumitomos (Can get the Nittos for 320 shipped). I know they aren't the best drag radials but they are the most affordable and last longer than other ones. I wish they were wider though.

    imo nittos are just as useless. BFG DR's hooked the best but lasted like 3k miles. The KDW's hook up with the KB in 2nd sometimes although they are brand new. I was just looking for something that last long, I don't constantly beat my car. I can't give you an accurate answer either because I'm running 16#'s on a safe rich tune still. After a dyno tune I'm sure it'll be a little different story. You can't expect a perfect setup when your running near 600hp on mostly stock parts, tires alone arn't gonna fix shit. You start getting to the point where its not that cheap to mod anymore haha. Thats why I'm trying to figure out what to do next to mine to build it up right. I thought about nitrous, but I think I'm gonna build up the rear end next. Makes the most sense.

    Well I was about to buy the Nittos but I changed my mind and bought some 315 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDs. I know they probably won't hook as good as the Nittos but I hope they will last longer. I had 2 sets of 315 Sumitomos and they only lasted around 4k miles.
