Default Drag tires for 20's?

Just wondering if anyone has the inside scoop on the possibility of Drag tires becoming available for dubs?

From my research it looks like the BFG g-Force T/A's are about the stickiest things going for 20's......

I don't think it's a completely useless idea...I would LOVE to have some 20" DR's. I already have traction issues on the street, and I don't wanna run 18's.

Moregrip--any idea on the sizes available for those BFG's?

On that page ... those tires on the right are suppose to be pretty good. You might look into some Nitto's too. I don't know how big of a rim they go up to, but they might have a 20 available.

Why wouldn't you want 20 inch drag radials? I would like to hear your thoughs on that?? Unless you have a Honda, and then you dont even need them anyhow.
