The BFGs will last longer, although not by a whole lot.

It must take a damn good launch to do this on 17" with a 40 or 35 series DR. I know last year i put on a set of 275/40/17 Nitto DRs and have had some awesome launches with them using my Spec stage IV clutch launching around 3500-4krpm with little to no tire spin and my rear is holding fine

I'm trying to find some new ones for the track this coming weekend to test my this out again

I know I know, not everyone is a lucky as me

Track didn't have times then. Just a legal place to race. Now they are supposed to have times so I will hopefully get a chance to check it out
