Default How are the Kumho Victoracers?
im in need of new tires for this upcoming season... the Kumho's are the cheapest tire i could find. the size i want is 315/35/18. this was the only thing that came up at Discount Tire. are these tires any good???

i am also looking at BFG drag radials...those good??

how about Toyo RA1's?

i liked my nittos, but i want a fat tire! the nittos just didn't look fat enough for me, and i know they run kinda smaller then advertised...

any thoughts?

thanks!
Aj

Are you looking for a track day or drag tire ? The Kumo's are a great track tire - sticky, last well and are cheap compared to Hoosiers and other brands. If you are considering them for a drag tire, DON'T, they are not an ultimate traction tire like a drag radial.
