i have been thinking about this more than i should be, and its really bothering me now, so i figure i'll see what the critics, rice burners and style gurus on RL's have to say :)

the car is a 90 integra all black (rims and everything) lowered, 11psi, quiet, nothing really flashy about it at all, just a type R lip.
i have a set of BFG's, they are 245/60 14, on one side they have "BFGoodrich Radial T/A" in raised white letters, on the other side its just flat black lettering, im torn on what side to face out, i was even thinking of sanding the white off the raised letters and putting a dark colour on the raised letters, red or something, i dunno

no.

this thread is about style, hooking up, and what people would do with drag radials. Mine are a drag radial size but are only speed rated to 112mph.

did you have an option for mounting yours?

Pick whatever you like better as far as style goes. They won't really hook up because they're not a drag radial.

you think i'll spin street 245's? what would you recomend in a drag radial size to not spin?

I recommend you buy real drag radials, not drag radial sized tires. 225/50/15 BFG or MT street radial is the best it's going to get without cutting grooves in slicks to try and fool cops. :lol:

cool, i'll give those a try on the new rims im getting.
I wasn't sure if $200 a tire was worth it, but if it really makes that much of a difference i'll try em, thanks man
