Depends what you are looking for? Drag race traction, curves, rain, etc?

Also, how many miles of use you can live with.

M/T, BFG and Nitto have drag radials.

For decent summer time traction , Only had good luck with BFG Drag Radials. I have put over 2000 miles wet/ dry conditions . They are slippery in the rain.

I would reccomend the BFG drag radials if it was a warm dry day driver.
