BFG Drag Radials? Unless you will DEFINATELY not be driving it in the rain.. you can do with a DOT tire, M&H Racemasters, Hoosier DOT Quick Times, M/T ET Streets... cops don\'t like \'em (around here) but as long as that DOT # is on it (and you have 3/32).. there ain\'t $hit they can do.

Probably the BFGs. The Hoosiers and ET streets will wear out too fast under normal street driving.

Should be the same. Although, drag radials are much wider then regular tires.
With perfect backspacing,(don\'t remember what is was offhand) and a rolled fender lip, I\'ve heard you can fit a 325/50/15\" under there. I wouldn\'t try over a 295/50/15 street tire. Those look plenty fat, and shouldnt\' be too much work to tuck them.

If you wanna get into slick sizing, like Hoosiers and ET Streets, I know that i\'ve got about 3/8\'\'-1/2\'\' with my 27x11.5\'s between the frame and back of the tire sitting with a load on it and 13psi in em\'
