Default BFGoodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial?

Ok guys im aware that going with 225's on stock rims isnt the smartest thing in the world to do but i need a tire that will grip enough to give me a Win against a evo from a dig, and the only thing i can think about is going dr's. now how many people have 225 bfg's Dr's on thier stock rim? how do they grip, what 60's have been pulled, and how do they perform in daily driving. Im also aware of the shitty traction in wet weather and rain but thats somehting i can deal with. thanks alot guys oh and i will be leaving the kdws in the rear.

just get some wider wheels. It'll give you tons of tire options down the road.

Is there two tread patterns and is there really a big difference. I personally think one tread pattern looks cooler but looks are only skin deep.

well, there are no safe options in any drag radial that lets you keep the stock wheels.

not as good safe. the sidewall is softer so deflection can occur more easily.

I got about 7K out of mine on the stock wheels. Thought I wouldn't recommend it, its fine if your not going to drive on them very often. I drove on mine everyday and I feel a wider wheel will allow them to work better as well.

In a pinch, they are fine, but if you can afford some wider wheels, do it. Pep Boys had cheap 17" wheels...
