Default 325/50-15 Hoosier Quick Time DOT versus BFG Drag Radial

Currently I use the 315mm 17" BFG Drag Radial on my 1991 C4. I really want to get a bit more bite without going to a virtual slick like an ET Street. My thoughts were on trying a:

15x10" Weld with 7.5" backspacing
325/50-15 Hoosier Quick Time DOT or BFG Drag Radial

Has anyone compared the Hoosier and the BFG for "stickyness"? If you compare the 15x10" with 7.5" backspace with a 17x11" GS rim with 7.93" backspace it would appear that the 15x10" with 7.5" BS would be a good fit.

Is anyone using this combo and is so what are your thoughts? My car is lowered down about 1.5" and I wonder how a 28" will fit and if the car would need to be raised up some.

Any and all thoughts are appreciated!!
