ya bfg's are about the best drag radials, unless you want to go with mickey et streets. nittos last alot longer but dont hook up as well. I wouldnt worry about what size works best but what is the biggest you can get for whatever wheels you have available. Plus what sizes will fit in your wheel well. With mustangs they have a tendency to hit the exaust pipes in the back where they cross over the axle. The biggest you can fit on a 8" rim (stock) is about a 275/40/17 which is even a little big for a 8" rim.
