Message	I currently have the set of Bridgestone RE730's that are about shot. They are 275's mounted on some SSR 17x9's. I might go to the track occassionaly, the car never sees rain and only gets driven about 2-3k miles each summer. I need something that is going to keep the back-end hooked up on the street. Spinning the tires through all of first and second gear is getting old quick. I'm thinking about just going with some BFG Comp T/A drag radials on the rear and keeping the pressure up for the street, but I'm worried the handling will be horrible. I have no experience with these tires... only the great reviews people give them for their capabilities at the track. Does anyone here drive on them on the street? I'd like to hear some opinions from all you other guys with 500+HP Z's to see how the hell you keep your car on the road so you can actually use the power. Thanks!
