A quick query--how many guys posting that 400/500 hp is too much are running good tires (e.g., Avons, drag radials, Billboards)?

For whatever reason, a lot of guys settle for running junk tires (e.g., Radial T/A)--which can be downright dangerous in these cars.
Hey, I use BFG radials T/A on my van, and they are fine.
