Default Kumho V700 or Nitto Drag Radials?

I have used the search feature here but nothing really said very recently. I am curious to hear of those who currently, or in the past, have run either of these and how they felt about it?

I plan on going one of these routes:

Kumho Ecsta V700: front 265/35/18, rear 335/30/18

Nitto: 555 front 275/35/18, 555r (drag radial) rear 335/30/18


I realize one is more of a lateral handling/cornering tire, and the other is a drag radial for straight-line traction/performance.

I would like the best of both (of course!), but just want to bounce this off many of you since mini-tubbing and these tire sizes have become increasingly popular recently. What is the consensus?

FYI - my car will be used on the street and will see very little track time, if at all.

thanks!
