Default what tires??

Ive done a few searches and haven't really found the info i need.

My car was just finished up 403cid making 530/500 on motor. We just got my dedicated fuel system today. The car will he hit with a 200 shot. probably make over 700rwhp.

My question is this, what tires should i get Mickey ET street (which i have now but are almost bald) or BFG DR's
If heard a few stories. Ive heard the MT ET is a better drag radial for the strip while the BFG is a better street tire. I dont do track events. The MT's DR i have on now were fine when i was just making 585rwhp on the bottle, i could juice in 1st gear with no problem. My tuner and builder swear to me that the BFG is a better tire for what i want. I dont think they would lie, because im buying the tires on my discount tire credit card.

any info would be appreciated

I've used both on my supercharged Mustang. The MT hook better in my experience however will not last as long as the BFG. So if traction is the more important of the two then go MTs.

I'll throw one more suggestion in there for you, M&H makes a nice 18" DR now 325/40/18, I've not used them, but know many guys who swear by them for street use.
