I don't know who is the cheapest to get them from but if you have to use drag radials then I would have to tell you to go with the Nitto's. The BFG drag radials are great on the track but are not any better than a regualr radial on the street. Neither is real good on the street but the Nitto's are better than the BFG's.

------------------
82 Z28 with 350.motor has .030 forged flat top pistions other wise stock bottom end, Summit 214/224 cam with 1.6 Harland Sharp roller rockers, stock 882 heads for now (will be getting a set of the 23 degree Trick Flows this summer), Performer RPM intake, Holley 750 Vacuum secondary, Th350 with 2200 converter, stock 3.23 geared rearend for now (getting 9" later on), Headman shorty headers, custom 2.5" into 3.5" Y pipe into M.A.C. offroad pipe and M.A.C. cat back system. So far car has only been to the track twice and is having sever traction problems but is running 60'-2.34 1/8 mile-9.2 @ 79 MPH.

I got my Nitto's at Discount Tire for $125 each. They work good at the track and pretty good on the street.
