Nitto NT555R Drag Radials

i run them, this was my first summer, no track time but they are light years ahead of a street tire for almost the same money, why pay for bfg radial t/a's and not be able to hook on the street? and the t/a's will wear just as fast if not faster. i have around 400 to 420 hp and run a dynamic 9.5" stall 4,400rpm and on the street they spin about 2 or three revolutions that i can feel and then bite hard. i say go for them. Where did you find that price?
