Default Just ordered the G Force tires from BF Goodrich...

Anyone have any experience with these? My Pilot Sports suck for drag racing. I ordered another set of rear CCW's and the 315 30 18 BF Goodrich tires.

All I run is BFG's. Did you get the Drag radials or the KDW's KD's?

I've got the KD's on the rear 315/35/17 on GS rims and KDW's on the front 275/40/17

I think they are great, but can still spin them. (6 speed)
But once I put on the Crossframe on, I have a harder time spinning them at full pressure. If I drop to 15-20psi they hook up great.

The drag radials are incredible!!!! Again 315/35/17 on rear and with 15-20psi I cant spin them.

Great tire choice!!!! :thumbs:

:steering:
