255/50-R16 BFGoodrich Comp T/A Drag Radials ?

The BF goodrich drag radials from slp with the rims for 399 a good deal? iam looking to be able to hook my z better on my street tires i spin too much the are a hard 400 series tire. i was thinking of getting these to help me hook and get into the mid 13 or low. i dynoed 301 rwhp and 329 tq at ls1 speed a week ago and i was wondering if these tires would help me out sine the power increas. i have 4:10 gears and in a stock 10 bolt so i am hopping that these would not hurt my rear, i dont plan to use them that often i prolly only be going to the track this once this summer so i would not get much use out of them but if i can get a low 13 it be worth it, also should i just try with my street tires first and see what i get and then buy them if i need them or what do you guys think. what et would you expect me to run, when leaving the line i ease the clutch out i do not dump it.
Neil will this car take a 1996 cobra with 4:10 gears cold air and x pipe no cats and flowmaster ????? he ran 13.7 on g tech

Basically, you are paying $100 for the rims.

If you were to buy those wheels and tires seperately you would be paying shipping on each order plus you would have to have them mounted and balanced yourself, in the end you would probably spend over $450 for all that. As long as their shipping isn't too bad that sounds like a good deal to me.
