Tire Question for 10.5"x17" wheels

[svtslowcar]

I did a search for this already but didnt find quite the answer i was looking for, so here goes. Im getting a pair of 10.5 x 17 rims for the rear, and i wanted to get opinions of the best drag radial tire for this particular size. i just wanted to know what everyone else got their best traction with. im unsure if the best are nitto 315, BFG DR's, or anything else you can suggest. thanks in advance

For pure traction, either a Hoosier or MT 315/35/17. The Hoosier in that size will be available shortly (next few weeks) and the Mickey Thompson in that size is also expected soon.

M/Ts might not be available for a couple months. Mickey Thompson isn't giving definite release dates yet. Nittos will last longer, BFGs will stick better. Hoosiers are similar to BFGs.

go bfg's. their traction is awesome and decent milage. i've already put 3k miles on them and still got about another 2-3k left on them (and once again, thank you jeff. you're a life saver, literally)

Go Hoosier 335. You'll need to do some work to get them on, but they hook up hard enough to change the rotation of the earth! It'll make your car look like a Hot Wheels car, though.
