Question Tires

I am currently building a 383.That will have alot more power than the 350.

(1)how well do bfg drag radials corner(currently have radial t/a)
(2)what performance tire do you recommend for cornering.

see i love the street action but i would also like to do circle track on some weekends.I know you can't really get the best of both worlds but i would like to get close

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INPUT

well DR's arent the best for corninger, but unless u are going to be doing so serious autoX'ing and jsut street driving they should be fine. BUT if it rains ur screwed. plus if this is a daily driver HOPE to get 10k miles out of them. if u r looking for a good street traction tire.. look at the... umm.. DAMn.. whats that tire made/sold at pep boys... damn.. i cant remember the name, hopefully somone else will buzz in here. btw what size rims u have? im looking to convert to 17" ZR-1s and get some nitto DR's *they are actually ZR rated(180+)* and have really good corning, where as the BFGs arent even near z rated.
