I am in the market for some rear tires and I was wondering what kind of tires people have been happy with. I am probably only pushing 200 hp at the wheels with 3.73 gears. I have some used teranzas on there now and they definitely don't hook up in first and barely in second. I would be open to a mild drag radial, or just good street tires. I am in college and on a budget, but i do get a deal on tires through a friend. What do u guys think?
If you are looking for a mild drag radials go with a nitto, they arent the stickiest but they last longer than most others.

I run 10.5 in the rear draglites and use cooper cobras, they hook well as a regular tire. I used to use d/r comp t/as as a streetable d/r. their not bad either.
I wish I could run tires that wide. I am lowered with the eibach (forget the name of the kit) 2" drop. I have 235 or 245s on there now, and i dont think i could go wider. I might roll the fender and see if I can get something wider in there.
275s would be nice, what suspension setup are you guys using?
