Cheapest 315 drag

Anyone know what the cheapest drag radial tire is. The nittos i have are completely bawled and cannot afford to replace them because of my motor build. I need to get some new tires to tie me over till i can save up and get a nice set up. The Tire size is 315 55r 17in thanks in advance

Re: Cheapest 315 drag

The BFG gForce T/A Drag Radial is $189 at Tire Rack. Unlike the Nitto, its actually a 315 tire.

And you want a 315/35-17 which matches the stock 25.7" tire diameter. I've never heard of a 315/55-17, but if they made it, that would be a 30.6" diameter tire and wouldn't fit on a 4th Gen without mini-tubs and cutting up the fender.

The BFG's are pretty sticky, and as noted, a true 315 tire. Much wider than the GS-C 275, for example:
