I think with the use you gone make on it... The RT-615 is your best buy!
1. English may not be the official language in the US, but it is what 95% of us understand and speak.
2. You are getting ripped on those tire prices.
3. The drag radials (I assume you are talking about the BFG drag radials) should last 5-8k miles. The Falken Azenis RT-615 can last 12k miles if you don't spin a lot or do burnouts.
4. The Falken Azenis RT-615 will not grip like the BFG drag radial would, no matter what you do. The sidewall is STIFF because the tire is designed to corner amazingly well.
5. The Falken also doesn't like being heated up so burnouts will actually hurt you.
6. If you want any hope of having 2nd gear hook with more than 250-260whp, you need to run the drag radials.
Exactly. As a roadcoarse/autoX tire you can't beat the 615's til you go R compound, but for launching & drag racing, you have to go DR's hands down.
Launching on 615 will not be easy with that stiff sidewall. DR's sidewalls flew to keep your contact patch on the ground without hoping or breaking loose as easy.

you people are dumb. asking about 2 tires that were made for 2 different styles of racing. azenis are a thick side wall and compount is even a little hard too. made for autocross. plus loud as hell in a daily driver.
BFG g-force made for street driving but good for the track. ya the won't last long cause soft compound on the tire. save time swapping tires at the track.
Why does everyone always overlook the mickey thompson et streets when they talk about drag radials? I have a pair of 225/45/17 bfg dr's and they're shitty to say the least. Mickey Thompson et streets in 235/60/15 hook 100X better.
and the et street doesn't fit on a stock suspension car and it is instantly noticeable what you have on compared to a true streetable drag radial like the BFG.
yes it will fit. why hooks up better? cause there alot more side way on the MT 235-60-15 then 225-45-17 thats why. get the BFG in 235-60-15 not g-force patter but will work just as good.
