Best Drag Radials?

Hey guys. I was wondering what the best radials and best size would be for camaro. Recently got a cam and tune with a VVT/DOD delete so I see that after getting used to her new upgrades that the stock tires could probably lose me some time at the strips. i only want to do the rear wheels and I'll prob only switch to the radials when events come up For that whole day and switch back to my daily tires with the stock rims. Now I have to keep in mine that I have to drive to most drag strips and they are 40 min. To an hour and half away so there's that lol

Buy the car that you would most like to get beat in. The other guy will always be faster.

Mickey Thompsons for strip action. Nitto 555r for best all round performance if your driving to the strip. They are better in the rain and last alot longer. Have good reviews on here for for strip as well. I have the Nittos and will be trying them at the track hopefully May 6.

I enjoy my nt555r as a daily tire. If I wasn't running a drag radial as a daily then I'd only run Mickey Thompson. NT05r is a step above nt555r but MT and m&h are better. Maybe even check out Hoosiers offerings.
