Drag radials on stock drivetrain - Opinions?
Just wanted to get an input on people who have experience with this.
After my second set of Advans, i've decided on getting some Nitto 555R Drag Radials, i do have a stock drivetrain though, so for people who run such, would running these tires hurt the drivetrain when drag racing - launching from a two step?
The 555R's aren't as sticky as the BFG's so, i'm assuming they wouldn't have the same gripping forceful effect....
Opinions?

Well i make 333whp and 356wtq, which is decent, but i didn't consider a certain power rating for running a drag radial for it to be effective. I think i ran a best of 1.6-1.7 on the advans.
Its either the 555R's or the Falken RT-615's which are the same price, why not go for something sticker? I road race once or twice a year, but i do drag race on the weekends....

In that case maybe you should go with these. I have all seasons on my stockers right now and they SUCK from a dig. I've only got a little more power than you and I'm doing 15-20ft burnouts with my 2-step......crappy damn tires.
