BFG Drag Radials?

[jrray24]

A local fella has 4 new BFG drag radials for sale at a reasonable price compared to retail. Are they worth buying?

 

[LitemUp]

what size?

 

[jrray24]

I believe they are 315/35/17?

I would say if you can buy any drag radial slick with lots of life left in them it would be a good purchase,IMO

 

[jrray24]

He said they still have the stickers on them $280 for all 4. Retail is like $160 each. I just did not know if they were good tires or not.

That sounds cheap!

That tire is only 25.6 inches tall, too short to really work on a truck.

Wouldn't a shorter tire be quicker in the 1/4 being we have tonnes of top end??

A tire that short will probably put you in 5th gear before crossing the line...that will kill your ET..

Well I had already sent the fund with PayPal before TNViper pointed out how short the tires are. I picked them up today. They are new and short. I had actually planned on running on a local 1/8th mile track so maybe they will work. Now I have to find a couple of cheap wheels to mount them on!! I will let you all know how they do at the track. Thanks for the replies.

Good boy, even if they are to short, you can still sell them at a profit!

Selling short things for a profit is my profession!
