I just installed mickey Thomas SR tires on my backdraft cobra.
I have 15" wheels that came with my backdraft, running a small block.
This tires are 10xs better than the BF Goodrich tire, MT SR tire lock up and go
and the handing is amazing. Now I have the look and I feel much safer on this tires!! Worth every penny I spent.

Rubber bands stretched over the wheels would outperform the BFGs! They are old, old tech and borderline dangerous on a Cobra.

Yes, the MT S/Rs perform very well for the price. We have delivered several Superformance chassis' with them and they have met the customer expectations.

I really like the MT S/R, but they seem to flat spot easy. I'm trying Flatstoppers now to try and keep them round.

U think BFG are bad try Dunlop qualifier. I was spinning the tires going into third at 65 gets interesting at times. Mine are 5 years old though.
